Re: Hello all
Ooo We live in Western North Carolina. I was thinking she may be just an Eastern garter though! It'd be interesting if we could pin what she really was :]

Re: Hello all
Looks like Thamnophis sirtalis (Eastern Garter Snake) and Thamnophis sauritus (Eastern Ribbon Snake) are both common to N.C. but T.sirtalis is the only one common to the western part of the State.
The first range map is for T.sirtalis. The second is forT.sauritus.
This information is from this website: Snakes of North Carolina

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

Re: Hello all
Welcome to the forum family! I was going to say she looks like an eastern garter from the pic you posted...I'm a little late jumping in here. Her size would suggest eastern female...male easterns are usually quite smaller. Easterns are awesome...I happen to have a little family of them myself...
