'Deck Garter Snake '
I recently came across this Eastern Garter snake sunning himself on the deck. It's a little unusual as the deck is approximately 4 feet high but then again these guys are pretty resourceful.
'Tough guy'
Emilie and I found this little fella under a sheet of tin in my dad's back yard. This guy had a bit of an attitude from the get go, I guess he didn't want to be disturbed. One of their defense mechanisms is to make themselves appear bigger than they actually are. As you can see in this picture he's flattening himself out and taking a defensive posture. You can't see it here but this dude was trying to get a piece of me; he was striking and trying to bite. We took the hint and let him be.
