Time to suggest a thematic survey to DHR?

 From all I've seen, they're vastly under-represented in the surveys.  
But, the 15' USGS quads have them on and it should be possible to do  
a survey and to make some interesting extrapolations from their  
distribution relative to population density. The State Fair was  
looking for one a couple of years ago to put into their permanent  
exhibit.

However, most of them I have seen are about overgrown inside thickets  
and and covered with vines. I'd also suggest VDOT files as they  
tended to be very near roads and I know I dealt with one in Suffolk  
while I was there.
