The wonderful
Garter Snake
Thank you for
visiting my Garter Snake page. If you reside anywhere from northern Mexico
to Southern Alaska, you most likely have Garter snakes very near by. They
are very adaptable to changes in the enviroment around them, so colonies
can even exist in larger city parks, industrial or agricultural areas.
I'm not going
to drone on with a bunch of scientific data, there are plenty of web sites
available for that purpose. I personally have been studying our local
colony, rather casually, but noting my observations along the way.
Where we live there is an abundance of eastern Garter snakes, Thamnophis
Sirtalis Sirtalis.
The colorations
of these animals vary so widely that no two look exactly alike! We have
orange ones, yellow ones, green ones and some rare red specimens crawling
about! Special thanks To Scott Felzer of Albinogartersnake.com for producing
some of the wildest garter snake morphs known to man.
The photos
in my gallery include several examples of these variations, However
I do need to spend some time and sort these pictures in a fashion that
makes sense!
Scott Felzer produces some HOT flames!
