As I said before. They are just as curious about us. I had a number of photos like this. They would shoot up to see what it was than back to the breeding.
There was also some variety amongst all these snakes.


Out of all the snakes we saw this was the only attitude we found.
This one had just emerged and was dirty and cold. We set her in the sun for a quick warm-up.


Death was never very far away. The crows seemed to only pick on the 2 year old males. Here's one that I found. Crows will kill them by pecking through the skull into the brain and then eat only the liver. This was the only difficult time my kids had. My oldest and I were both in tears at the site of all the ones that didn't make it. I tried to point out to her all the life that surrounded us but it's hard to overlook these poor little ones.
