    I haven't got the slighest clue, what these snakes are. But when I moved here to Georgia from Illinois 2004, these I found in my backyard...

    Red Belly Snakes
    Massasauga Rattlesnakes

    The two main areas I go field herping at is either 8 minutes away and the other is 1 1/2 away. I usually alternate between the two spots and dont visit the one 8 minutes away any more than I do the one farther away.
    At my closer spot I see some king snakes (rarely) but average 3 WDB's a night. More when the hatchlings are out.
    My second location which is the further of the two I see mostly mojave rattlesnakes and some sidewinders. There is one other very secret place that I go to for sidewinders.

    I'm also from southern Michigan, do you have any tips for a beginning "enthusiast"? All I've ever personally seen is several garters and a water snake.
