Anne Elliott's photos with the keyword: Snake

A friend took me for a walk this afternoon to one of his favourite areas of the park. We climbed a clay bank looking for Tiger Beetles and came across about eight snakes. Both kinds were seen; the Wandering Garter Snake and the Red-sided Garter Snake. This one is a Red-sided - quite beautiful, really. I can tell you that a steep, crumbling cliff is not the ideal place to walk for someone who has a fear of snakes and of heights, LOL! It is good, though, to know that there seems to be a healthy number of these reptiles already. Thanks, D, for showing these to me : )
