First one of the spring in my backyard



How do you have anything green besides the snake in your back yard?

It's actually one of my queen palms. I wrapped the hell out of them and there is still some green on them. Hopefully they turn out alright.

FWIW, here in Arizona there are a lot of rattlesnake varieties. What helps me distinguish the Western Diamondback from say a Mojave rattler is the very high contrast, black and white bands near the rattle on a WD. Some old geezers here in AZ refer to them as coon snakes because of the black and white tail.

Yeah, we do get some very vividly marked rat snakes here. Some are more dull, but some are very distinct in coloration.

This one is a great plains ratsnake, as opposed to the Texas ratsnake. I'm betting you have both on the property, which is neat.

Driller found this little guy in the cutting slop. He at least washed him off.

Still not clue why I have to put the link and it won't load the image using their built in thing. Maybe I have to have stars to do it.

Some reason I was thinking bigger but after you said that and looking again you may be right.

Not a snake, but saw several of these guys while cleaning out the creek at the bottom of our property. No idea what he is. We're in the Birmingham area.

I'm sure I'll get this wrong cause I'm definitely not a salamander expert, but my guess would be a northern dusky salamander.

Thanks y'all. I told the boys it was probably a salamander and then of course they needed to know what kind.

I find a lot of Texas brown snakes at my house. Usually under bricks, or in the garden. They're almost always in the 10 to 12-in range. I found this guy in the middle of the back porch this afternoon though. He was huge compared to the others. At least 18 in long. Struck at me several times while I was trying to pick him up which the other ones never do.

Hognose Snake

More than likely a western hognose but I am not real familiar with their morphology. I think Zooguy used to raise them and I am sure one of 12fmane or Badace can elaborate more.
