    Home herping.

    Did some herping in my yard today. I'm beginning to think I have a den under my back deck. Seems to be the exit point for a large number of radixes. I'm thinking about putting a camera under there to keep an eye on it.


    I had been doing some siding work last fall and left the cable cover off the cable box. Guess that makes a great hide. Found this pretty girl under it.




    I've said it before but I've seen a lot of this brown coloring in my radix population in the last year. I'm missing the greens and lighter colors.

    They are not just snakes. They're garter snakes.

    There used to be a couple of them. Eastern plains (T. radix radix) and Western plains (T. radix haydeni), but it was deemed that the subspecies were too vaguely defined.
