    Odd color Eastern Garter...

    Ok I just caught this Eastern Garter in my front yard. It stood out like a sore thumb in the dark grass/dirt. Can anyone tell me if they've seen or have one like it? I know what they are suppose to "normally" look like but this one is different. I plan on trying to prove it out if no one know what it is.

    Photo shows his true color...


    This photo is too dark but crisp...


    Tried to get a head shot...

    Beautiful snake.
    I see what you mean by "standing out"

    Wow, that is a pretty one!
    It's amazing how much variety you see in just the one species.

    Very pretty eastern. It reminds me of Scott Felzer's and Shannon's hypomelanistic easterns. Nice find!

    edit-Wait a minute...Scott Felzer also shows a granite eastern on his website that looks very similar to the one you found.
