OK, next question. This area is flat, no trees, no out buildings, no rock piles, just grassy planes. Is it feasible to think that gopher snakes in this area could be spending the day underground? there are lots and lots of what appear to be mouse holes, or gopher holes. Would it make sense to think they spend their hot days underground and come out in the night?? Would early morning be a good time to hunt for them? I've gone out the last two evenings and haven't seen anything. Thanks for any suggestions.
