Yesterday I had a visitor on my side porch. It was a garter jerking his head around I am thinking on the trail of a female? I found a worm and tossed it to him to see what he would do. He ate it right up. This morning I saw a large female in the same area. So maybe it was a girl he was after. I would of got a pic but she darted away. Well just now I was outside when I herd the neighbor girl scream. There was a dead garter on the road, the female I saw this morning by my porch 
Anyway I got some cool pics of snakes on my property. I got a house on over 2 acres last year and it is my dream home. Crawling with snakes, frogs, and salamanders. I know garters pretty well, I have been around them almost all my life. I do not however know the different types of garters very well. So if anyone could tell me what kinds of garters I have here it will cheer me up after what happened with that poor snake. Thanks
