Graybanded Kingsnake We Found

John Fraser Jul 01, 2004 06:41 PM

Hi All,
Here is a "In-Situ" or as found photo of a 15" male graybanded kingsnake, dark phase pin-striped alterna morph that my dear friend Mike (Delaware Kid) Geiger & I found on a rockcut, 3 miles West of Sanderson on June 18. This is the 2nd of 2 alternas that I got see the week I was in Texas then. John

purty John....I have found squat (alterna) this year. Everytime I go to look it rains cats and dogs. I think I'm going to hire out my services to drought stricken areas. If they need rain, I'll just go there and snake hunt.
I did find a very nice example of the spps. Perdnales pointyi the other day though

Hey John,

Nice animal. It's about time you got around to posting something here about your trip last month. So where's the other alterna and info you mentioned?

It looks like we are going out for a short trip this month from the 22nd and leaving Alpine on the 26th to check out the progress on the house and get a couple of nights in, probably around Alpine. We are shooting for an end of July completion, but it may drag into August a bit.

I believe you are going to be out there at the same time as us in September. You better make it over to Alpine for us to get together for at least a meal!

Take care and say hi to Barb and Chris, you know, that gun crazed young man of yours.

Doug,
Thanks for the comments, I have other photos to post, will get them on eventually.

Chris will be in College classes when Barb & I come down in September, so he will have to "pistol-whip" you at a later time, LOL! Of course since your not into "guns" like him, I would suggest some good, name-brand running shoes, J/T lol!

Tell Nancy HI! JF
