....those baby black Racers spend quite a bit of time periscoping from under the edge of their hide bark, and it's too cute. I'm sure if I set up my camera near the cage I'd get a shot of multiple heads spying the surroundings. I've seen wild Striped Whipsnakes periscoping from rock piles--'way neat. The Eastern Coachwhip is black on the front half, shading to tan on the rear--the Doppleganger of the animal in Conant. I'll try for a pic when mine is stronger and has been in captivity for a while--photos can be stressful. Work with me, baby! Yeah! That's it! Oooo yeah--flirt with the camera, sweetie!

Of course, try sweet talking a Coachwhip and see what happens. "Want me to work with the camera, eh?" CHOMP! "That's me working with the camera, meatsack!"
