When I was a kid snakes were common. lift up and old board or piece of canvas sack, and out came a dispossessed snake. Most were garter or black snakes. I've not seen many snakes of any kind in the Northeast for decades. still see some of them in the carolinas and florida. Thinking about it, I suspect, that since hawks/owls are protected and thriving, they dine often on snakes. how about you guys??? ------------- “ The IQ and the life expectancy of the average American recently passed each other in opposite directions.” |

Still plenty out here Bear. Near water more than anywhere else. Rivers. None out now, and the Grizzlies have gone to bed too.  ------------- Remember: Four boxes keep us free ,the soap box, the ballot box, the jury box, AND the cartridge box |

We have more than I would like to see here too. Years ago when I worked at a coal mine they dug into a rattle snake den. I've never seen anything like that. Their must have been 50-100 snakes crawling around the shovel and the haul truck that was getting loaded. Definatly a sight. ------------- I have always considered myself to be quite the bullshitter, But ocasionally it is nice to sit back and listen to a true professional......So, Carry on. |
