Texas rat snake, I believe, a youngster. And a morning surprise.

I wanted to give depth to the stamens and in the end it reminds me of 6 little snakes poking their heads out of a green void.

Today is no time to take a photo! So, here is an old one! Taken in Hannover! Wish you all a great day!

I heard the robins, couldn't see it, tried from every angle and Mel I had to do my own medicine re: nettles....hahah....then found him, was checking my settings (dang) he flew off the branch and grabbed a snake, which I probably couldn't have caught because of the angle, but found him with his apply, almost caressing it...the first shot is of the owl the second included more of the snake.....

Why you need to also look down while looking up ...

 

Gopher snake - about 3-4 feet long. Harmless, but startling.

 

Miller-Knox Regional Shoreline, Richmond, California

Pituophis catenifer affinis - Hudspeth Co., TX. A large adult male.

I took this pic back in 2008 on the Niagara section of the Bruce Trail that crosses Shorthills Provincial Park with my Fuji film camera. Those days I was leading hikes with the members of the Bruce Trail Club. When I saw this snake on the path I told every body to stop and not move, these snakes are very shy, but venomous and I did not want any one to get hurt, and we let the snake find its way among the rocks.

A close encounter of the herpetological kind!

 

South Peachtree Creek Trail

DeKalb County (Medlock Park), Georgia, USA.

17 June 2023.

 

***************

Photographer's notes.

☞ This critter was probably as startled by us as we were of him. I pulled Charlie back to safety after he rooted it out of the foliage. Not being a herpetologist, I was concerned it might be a poisonous eastern copperhead (Agkistrodon contortrix) snake. Or maybe it was a harmless common watersnake (Nerodia sipedon). [See comments below.]

 

☞ Apologies for the top-down look—I wasn't sanguine about getting to eye level!— and for the motion blur —the snake was slithering away and I needed to shoot quickly without adjusting camera settings.

garden snakes coiled together during mating season

Grass Snake / natrix helvetica. 09/07/22.

 

With just head above the water, this stationary Grass Snake was looking for prey.

 

BEST VIEWED LARGE.

These are common snakes, but I always like seeing them. I found this one on a recent trip to visit my aunt and uncle on their farm in eastern South Dakota, warming itself in a patch of sun on a cool September morning. (Thamnophis radix)

First sighting of 2017

The Snake River Canyon (also known as the Grand Canyon) is formed by the Snake River in western Wyoming, United States, south of Jackson Hole. The Snake River cuts through a fold and thrust belt on its way from Hoback, Wyoming to Alpine, Wyoming. The North American Plate has pushed against the Farallon Plate to create many geologic features including the folds and thrusts visible in the Snake River Canyon in Wyoming.

CN 8896, and CN 2301 make their way passed Aldershot with 208 potash hoppers on train 731

Saw this one down by a lake shore slithering out of the grass

Late afternoon shadows engulf the canyon, Snake River Canyon.

Snake, water snake, Maryland, hike

It wouldn't come out to play properly but this grass snake was bathing in the limited sunshine today. I suspect it is about to shed its skin going by the opacity around the eye.

Jemaa el-Fna square, Marrakesh.

Didn't see any snakes in Chile, except for this empty copper concentrate train train snaking down the s-curves at Gaviota siding near Prat behind a pair of GT42ACs.

Common in the Ozarks region, this venomous pit viper is a water moccasin, usually found around rivers and ponds, and though we have a small stream that crosses our farm, much of the year it dries up so we don't see these snakes, fortunately.
