Every time I think of a rainbow snake, I see that drawing from the golden guide...the snake is on a log basking and their is a fly on the log next to the snake.

Seriously...I have not seen that book since I was a kid, but i guarantee their is a fly on the log next to the rainbow snake.

It's in my mind just like a snapshot.

Also...I can see all the pics on the "snakes" section from the World Book encyclopedia. There was a Sonoran mtn king wrapped around a pine cone...and a corn snake that to this day is the prettiest one I can ever remember seeing (if memory serves me right). I went out in the 6th grade on a mission to get a corn snake after I saw that photo.

I got one...but it was nothing like the one in the photo
