Milk Snakes are non venomous but they can pack a mean bite and draw blood! As first hand witnessed as a boy. These snakes can reach between 3-6 ft. long.
Interesting thing was this snake coiled up on me when in the grass and vibrated his tail just like a rattle snake! He struck at the stick I put near him!
I nearly ran over this Garter snake this week while cycling 230 km in Quebec. It was stretched out on a cycle path, soaking up the sun. After posing for a few photos, it slithered away into the bushes. Garter snakes are harmless to humans, unless you try to pick one up-then they may bite.
Thanks very much for the visit!
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.....

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.

Grass Snake / natrix helvetica. 09/07/22.
A close encounter with a Grass Snake. I think they are less 'angry looking' than Adders!
BEST VIEWED LARGE.
Wide angle shot of a a beautiful adult male Smooth Snake (Coronella austriaca). He was seen actively crossing a road on a sunny afternoon running through a steep and elevated patch of open Juniper woodland (Juniperus foetidissima). The location was Mikri Prespa NP in Greece.

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

I don't want to overdo things with the snakes but we really only see them like this once a year when they leave their dens and mate before spending the summer in their home ranges. They can be seen returning to their dens in the Autumn but not in this posture...Western wandering garter snakes (Thamnophis elegans vagrans). Photo by Frank

Veteran car on display along Pall Mall, London, on the eve of the London to Brighton Veteran car Run 2025. I forgot to note the details of the vehicle but I think it is a 1904 Renault.

I spotted this cottonmouth when it moved off of the log it was sunning on. Notice how much it is on top of the water, which is characteristic of this species of snake.

Spences Bridge, B.C.
You don't see many of these anymore and not surprisingly since they are fairly labour and wood intensive. However, way back they were economic to build, requiring no hardware like nails. Just notch the logs and they fit together like legos. And if you were clearing your land for farming you had a good supply of logs.
By the way, I don't believe 'snake fence' is the real name for this type of construction. It's just what we called them when I was a kid because they looked like snakes. :-)
