2017 May 10--UCC Coverboard Check

1200-1315. Today I checked all 36 cover pieces for the UCC Cover Board Project. The general trend continues, with a few Western Skinks under a few boards in the grassy areas, and not much else in other areas. The skinks were all small and very quick, and I didn't bother trying to catch any today for photographs. One skink was tailless, therefore lacking blue, which made it look much different than the others initially as it darted here and there. All data can be viewed in this Google Sheet. I did photograph a couple standard native mollusks, and a few now-blooming flowers. On my way driving from the college a spotted a Wild Turkey, so documented it for posterity. :-)
