So - I envy you, Marnie. I have a chance to see only 2 species and MAYBE 3.
You have one more than we do in the UK, we don't get the Elaphe here, and I wouldn't really count the tessellata based on a single sighting. However, I have seen all 3 of our native snakes. The smooth snake I've only seen once, grass snake once, and the adders maybe 4 or 5 times. None of them are common enough to go herping here.
