Re: I know you guys like pics.....

Ok so was just out gathering up Grasshoppers for my Gecko and I heard the leave moving around.. I see a Eastern Garter and go over to get it however it would not come out of the rocks.. I pulled gently and no go so I begin to pull some layers of rocks off. And I find this little guy with about a 1/4 inch of the easterns tail down its throat.. The garter was easyly TWICE to THREE times his size. I was pretty neat to see but I saved the garters life and am now keeping the eastern milk Figured maybe some of you garter lovers would be proud of me.... Another happy garter in the wild

'Ton oh snakes up here in Maine ahhh yup, guy, bub, guy'








What do you suppose the "red area" is on top of his head? Results of a bad shed?
