    My Favorite "Garters in the Wild" pics

    Grrrr! How I would love to post some new "Garters of 2008" pics! Fire season here in NW California has smoked out my favorite summer camping / herping spots.

    Coast Garter (T. elegans terrestris) SW Del Norte County August 23, 2007


    Oregon Garter (T. atratus hydrophilus) feeding on larval Dicamptodon - Smith River, Del Norte County June 17, 2007


    Oregon Garter with a mouthful! SW Siskiyou County July 19, 2007
