Notes
Found under rotting cork board at the edge of some fields, in a trash pile at the foot of some rocky, rosy-boa-type hills. Land is currently public and county owned, and other similar land in the area has recently been sold for development. No idea if there are any current plans to develop this land or not.
Bright sun, interrupted by brief showers and clouds all day. AC was warm, ground underneath was quite cold. (no temps measured).
