Snake sightings 2010 (saw another)

My son found this lovely Dekayi lady near our wetlands yesterday.

She was released right after I took the picture.

Re: Snake sightings 2010

found this good looking Milk Snake in the back yard, He has been hanging around for a few days now, looks as if a shed is immanent.

I picked him up and handled him last week and he was rather calm for a wild milk. No bites no musk..

Re: Snake sightings 2010

Looks like one of the to dead snakes we found at the park Sunday. Some kid kill both of them trying to say "they're cottonmouths". The other was a water snake. Neither look like a cottonmouth. I ask if he ever seen one he said "no." My 10 year little cousin told the kid "your a f- in **** head. The snakes weren't bothering any one. You kill them for no reason. How you like it if i hit you in the head with a rock for no good reason." I must say i was proud of her. Her mom wasn't to happy with her talking like that, but let it slide. She said can't blame her for being up set.

She want to be a vet when she gets older. Big time animal lover. My oldest daughter (Lana) use to want to be a vet. Then she realized she don't like the sight of blood. Be cool if Skyler (cousin) became one save me on vet bills. Of coarse i have had to take a snake to a vet in years. Guess that means i am doing something right.

Re: Snake sightings 2010 (more added 5-21)

saw 4 snakes all hiding in the same spot today....



This little garter snake was so funny, he kept leaving and then coming back, curious little fella! he scooted off 4 times and always returned within a minute or two.



This milk snake had the nicest caramel colouring to it, I handled it long enough to take it to the house and show to my family, and only got bit once.
I returned it safely to the hiding spot. (hope to see this one again some day.)



This one was all attitude, kept striking out, so I left that one alone.



Look who came back!



Came back again!

wow there must be absolutely no snakes around my area I never find any ever and I am outside all the time. We supposedly have a 6ft huge black rat around the house everyone in my family sees him a couple times a year but I have yet to see him.

I am very lucky, Our property is swarming with Garter snakes, brown snakes, redbellies, milks and water snakes.

Sometimes there are 4-6 hiding in the same spot at the same time.

There is some smooth greens and black rats, but they are much harder to spot.
