    Calling all ID experts...

    Alright, so I went out with my nephew a few weeks ago and saw 11 or so garters. We caught three, and I want to see what everyone thinks they are.

    I agree, Jason. It is a Wandering Garter. Very nice coloring.

    The first one (and I believe the last one is the same snake?) is very pretty. I love the light color. Good finds.
