Louisiana Master Naturalist Rendezvous 2018

I just got back from Rendezvous. It got way to cold for April, but otherwise the speakers gave a bunch of great talks and the Sunday nature hike was exceptional! We hiked around the pond, over the field, and through the woods finding the neat local species along the way. My personal highlights were the Rough Green Snake (probably just my 3rd ever, with my second at Rendezvous 2017 at Chicot), the Dwarf Salamander that Bob found in a log, my lifer Calico Pennants and Blue Corporals, tons of Dwarf Sundews, and a Swallow-tailed Kite that I saw in Oakdale on my drive home. Species seen/heard but not recorded in iNat include Ruby-crowned Kinglet, Yellow-rumped Warbler, White-eyed Vireo, Brown-headed Nuthatch, and Northern Cardinal.
