During late August I got to spend three weeks roaming around the woods of Maine just north of Millinocket. Over that time I caught seven garters and one little gray ringneck. I'll post a couple of pics of the garters here. The snakes that I ran across had two distinct color patterns: blue-bodied with red checks and greenish skin, and yellow/brown bodied with red checks and greenish skin. Are these both varieties of maritimes? Never had the pleasure of catching them before. Kinda sorry I didn't get the chance to keep 'em...
