Hello,
My spouse and I are new here. One week ago, we found a garter snake in the parking lot while it was snowing slightly. It was cold, so we decided to take him in. Not to mention, we have always wanted a garter snake! This is the first time we have seen one around us.
We are thinking it's a female, mainly because the tail tapers off just right after the vent, but we can't get a good shot of the vent without major wiggles.
We look forward to frequenting this forum! :]

Nice save there. Good looking snake. Garters are awesome.

Re: Hello all
People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually, from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint, it's more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey stuff.
