Of course I wasn't herping at the time, but found this guy today. A little different looking than the normal Sonoran Gopher snakes in Arizona.

Yavapai County, Arizona

Kerby...

I had a friend come over to see my unique looking Sonoran Gopher snake.....and he said it was a Cape Gopher snake and in fact he had three escape a few months ago. He lives 1/2 mile from house and we live out in the county.

So much for my unique find LOL

Kerby...

Actually, I don't believe you are the one who should feel stupid in this scenario.

Well if you get a nice animal out of it or strengthens a friendship, then it was not that stupid!!! You did a good thing!

Doesn't look like any cape I have ever seen. Nor a sonoran for that matter.
