"Hi Bill, how have you been? Your babies are doing great."

That is great. I have mating going on right now with E Fox.

"The new version mentions GH but doesn't give a range map."

.

The first GH I caught were in Mar, 1971.

Un-be-knownst to me, the subspecies had already been sunk.

It was dtermined that it was, in fact, a Yellow gray intergrade.

"This snake has a beautiful silver/gray base color that I like and hope it retains. I have others with that but the ash gray blotches. This is getting brownish blotches and well the rails, well they are just making things more interesting."



I've always thought some of the most contrasting grays come from that area, some even get purplish black blotches.

"Oh and tell your wife she has eagle eyes! I doubt I would have spotted them without field glasses.

.

Truth is, at this time of the year, we always use binoculars. The trick is looking in the right places!

.

.

""Both animals were photographed and left as they were.""

...like you had a choice!"

.



The first one I waded out to within 1 meter of the animal (Pic meta-data shows), snapped, then backed off.

.

The second one ,,,, well, I tried to get my wife to climb the cypress, but she said, " you first."
