I've been told by a few others that 10C seems to be the approx cutoff temp for seeing them out & about here.

Hi Chris. Yeah, garters do tend to accept the weather around here. Hey, that's something to point out to any python and boa fans who may have little regard for garters. "My garter is tougher than your tropical woosie snake." This fall is proving as weird as the past summer, but for the opposite reason. Instead of cool and damp, it's warm and dry. Up to 18C here in Lethbridge later this week. So I would expect they'll be out catching some rays in the warmer part of the day.

And you are already on my contact list for the spring. You breed checkereds, right? When do you want me to start bugging you?

Derek
