Look who I met today!

While out walking with Vivien this morning in the Salem wetlands near the airport, we encountered a Western Racer (Coluber constrictor).

Beautiful, powerful, amazing snake. We left her alone, just admiring her from a safe distance. These snakes have a painful bite. She had a number of scars on her body. Bite marks?
