Thanks for the comment Karen,I think you are right about the garter snake.

I think this might be a checkered gartersnake. The like to eat tadpoles and small fish, so it is not surprising that you found it near water. They are not venemous but can bite with their small sharp teeth.

Thanks for the comment Alandra,I'm glad you enjoyed it. I don't think they are deadly poisonous,but I'm sure they could give you a nasty bite.He did strike at my walking stick .

good shot of the snake, Alex, altho I can't go near them : ) Looks like he's ready to strike. Are they poisonous snakes?
