The funny part is that only yesterday I told my wife I hadn’t seen many snakes this year.

They are just sitting in the sun on sidewalks like idiots currently. I almost stepped on one on a walk on Saturday. Scared me (at first, when the brain is like SNAAAKE!!). :)

Replying to vtham (#66,430)

We see them all the time playing disc golf. Often freaks me out cause they are so camoflauged and the ground starts moving. When I was a kid we would pick them up sometimes. But they bite you sometimes and it hurts, not alot but enough.

Yup, garter snake. Identical to the one that slithered out of our garden and under our front tire one day. Except this one isn’t flat.

Garter. A good snake to have around. Especially if you have rodents nearby.

A pretty large garter snake, they’re completely harmless

You can let them bite your finger and hang them off of your hand, they’re too small to hurt you but they’ll latch on.

Nice, I haven’t seen snakes in the wild in years. I wish I could feed him a nice mouse.

You all sure those spots don’t match up to a gardener snake

Most common snake in VT, good for your garden & environs in general. Too shy to hurt you but eats small rodents, etc. Let it go on with its business and you’ll have a better yard (please no pesticides!)

The stuff they piss on you if you try to pick them up smells just like bellybuttons.
