Northern Brown Snakes in my backyard.

[aferland66]

Hi, here are some pics I took while counting Northern Brown Snakes (Storeria dekayi dekayi) in my back yard.
I've been encouraging them for the last few years by making sure part of my yard is not disturbed. I've also laid down some roofing tiles, and some boards so they can warm themselves and hide.
Two years ago, I had only seen 2 of them, this year, I counted at least 12.

All animals where documented, and then released back to there hiding spots.

Nice job. Decay snakes are pretty cool little guys.
