Yeah, the season is dwindling down here in the Bay Area as well, with the hillsides of the Santa Cruz mountains dry as a bone. However, despite such conditions here, I still turn up a rubber boa or two once in awhile...gotta wait till Spring or maybe...a few months...for zonata here (baby season maybe?).

An AZ milk would be awesome! What ssp are they, or are they undescribed?

You are right about the parents...by looking at the bodies themselves, I would have guessed multicincta based on how thick the white bands are, as well as the heavy black crossovers.
