Female loaded with eggs. I'm hoping to take that as a sign that no males are present since the LMB were making nests 2 weeks ago. The cold fronts are driving them on and off the beds.

Since this is the first one caught in 2 years, hopefully this means that they aren't reproducing. The last one was about 9" long.
