Ah, I have yet to find snakes other than water snakes.

Lovin' the pics, Kat.

Wonderful as always. Please keep posting these!

Great pictures! Love the gopher snake video....he's all puffed up and fierce! RAWWWRRR

Kat, great pictures and videos. I too think that very mighty gopher snake is just too great.

O_o Judy. Thank you for pointing out the videos. I just woke up from a nap and I didn't realize. Woot!

Awesome Kat!! Great Pics.
