Re: new here.
Welcome to the forum and nice photos. I believe Spot is and Eastern Garter Thamnophis sirtalis sirtalis. You'll meet some great people here and always ready to help if you have questions.

Re: new here.
Howdy and welcome to the forum. Spot's a good looking snake and yeh, I agree.....T.s.sirtalis. Though I can understand what Stephan was saying too. I kind of thought T.radix at first as well....but looks like the side stripe is on the 2nd and 3rd scale rows....not 100% sure though, pics are a bit blurry.

Re: new here.
Hello, and welcome!! Spot is very nice, and I'm going with Eastern for type -- he looks a lot like the garters I see around here.
