Cute little fella, soon as he spotted me he lifted up and stayed like that, motionless, looking at me as if I were rather sus!
And one more of him, eyeing my very suspiciously, lol
Does he think that you think that he is grass/greenery/(what is that, sedum?)? Silly snek.
He looks so adorable!
Beautiful shots! Cute noodle!
Nice! Snakes are a sign of a healthy, chemical-free environment.
Absolutely cute critter you have in your yard there. Looks like the little dude has a delightful kingdom to roam around in 👑.
Little periscopes!
So cute! I’ve only seen snakes out and about a few times and it’s always such a treat. I’d love to find a way to make my yard more hospitable for them, but I’m sadly surrounded on all sides with neighbors who spray their lawns and keep them all super short.
I love his colors! Such a cute little dude
That’s adorable! Does anyone know what kind it is?
Garter snake. Probably a common ribbon snake but it could also be a Northwestern garter or one of several similar garters.
