I just got back from Ocklawaha (in the Ocala National Forest) Yesterday. I did not have Great luck finding snakes.
I only got out 2 and a half days though I was at the Tampa show. I was out on the 6th and it was 89 F a bit warm.

I will list what I saw.

Snakes

4 Racers (one was eating a spade foot, the snake ended up biting me several times and it felt like I was envenumated)

5 Crowned snakes

1 Water snake Nerodia? that was about 3-3.5 feet I did not catch it but it was about as thick as my wrist. It was Jet black Maybe erithrogaster?

Lizards
Green anoles
Fence lizards and Scrubs
5 lined skinks
1 Broad Head
Ground skinks
Eastern Glass
I thought I found a Slender Eastern Glass but I think it was a Juv eastern as it did not have a dorsal line.

Turtles
Cooters got one crossing before a car smashed it

Oh ya and a bunch of gators on the Ocklawaha River.

Scorpions (Bark)
Black widows

I was keeping my fingers crossed for a few more snakes. But not bad for 2.5 days.

Cheers,
