Some pics...
My snakes have ended their brumation. A nice time to try my new macro-lens.
Enjoy...   Thamnophis hammondii  Thamnophis atratus atratus  Thamnophis fulvus  Thamnophis fulvus

Re: Some pics...
Great photos!
 It never ceases to amaze me how easily a grass snake could pass for a garter, by the way.

Re: Some pics...
Grass snakes are Garter snakes. They just don't know it

Re: Some pics...
You're probably right, the only real difference is that grass snakes lay eggs. But even the number of offspring (and their size) is practically the same.

Re: Some pics...
Wow, really awesome pics Fons!! I looooove that atratus, and I also love the pics of the fulvis facing the camera. And, does the sirtalis have larger eyes than other garters?? He looks all eye in that pic, but it's endearing.
