Great photo Doris! I always say it's a good omen when I happen to come across one of these in my travels. I love snakes, always have. I currently own a California Kingsnake but have also at one time or another owned corn snakes, water snakes, and rat snakes. Misunderstood and beautiful animals!

Aren't they the most wonderful creatures! This one looks like a youngster - love his dark coloring where ours are mostly brown. Wonderful photo as usual!
Doris Potter replied:
Thanks Carol, and yes, aren't they wonderful? I'm glad you said it looks like a youngster because that is just what I thought.

Like how you got the snake all looped like that. Get to see all its beauty!
Doris Potter replied:
I was so lucky that he coiled himself up like that and allowed me to get so close!
