The usual suspects for the area.

These guys are everywhere, some of them are even pretty clean scar wise.



Pituophis can be difficult to find in this area but I can usually turn up at least one.



There is never a shortage of Crotalus, I think we turned up 9?







Thamnophis were present in decent numbers. We found a couple sirtalis and a couple elegans.

I opened my back door to let the dogs do their thing outside in the morning and this guy invited himself in for a peanut breakfast recently: (Eastern Grey Squirrel)
