Obviously only includes encounters that I remember and have uploaded. I have no way of remembering my first-ever garter or milk snake, for example, much less my first green frog.
Edit:
In the absence of my actual lifers, I will be adding the first observations I've uploaded on iNat for every amphibian or reptile species listed below:
-Eastern Red-Spotted Newt (Notophalmus viridiscens viridiscens)
-Green Frog (Lithobates clamitans)
-Eastern Milksnake (Lampropeltis triangulum)
-Common Snapping Turtle (Chelydra serpentina)
-American Toad (Anaxyrus americanus)
-Eastern Garter Snake (Thamnophis sirtalis sirtalis)
-Spring Peeper (Pseudacris crucifer)
-Northern Watersnake (Nerodia sipedon sipedon)
-Eastern Red-backed Salamander (Plethodon cinerus)
-Painted Turtle (Chrysemys picta)
-American Bullfrog (Lithobates catesbeianus)
Rescued from a glue trap. Released after picture was taken.
Spots along sides not very visible in photo.

My lifer! Thank you to Dylan Horvath and all the Nature Preserve volunteers that work to make the crossing as safe as possible for the salamanders and educational for so many people!
Technically my lifer!

Upper individual has some kind of lesion on its head.
Younger (very small) but no yellow tails, so not that young
