On our last visit to Northwest River Park, we spied this critter, climbing a tree. I had just been traipsing around in the leaves, getting close to flowers for macro shots, so I was really, really glad he was up the tree and not under the leaves!
At least, I knew he wasn't poisonous! Otherwise, I would not have even tried to get these photos - I would have been running in the opposite direction!

Great find, I would be glad to see on the tree and not on the ground near me. But the poor birds have to hide. Great shots.
Great picture, but he's creepy :) As hard as I try to like and be all happy about snakes I just can't get over that they creep me out!
oh......eeek. I don't think I would have been close enough to take pictures - even with a ZOOOOM lens!
You never think to look for snakes in trees...but your pics give us proof that they are there! YIKES!!!!
Oh heck....not matter if it's poisonous or non---------I'd be running, and the snake would be slipping in my caca. Seriously, I HATE snakes.
Dare I say it tho? That last photo is pretty darned good, considerin'!!

they really are fascinating creatures. :)
Oh well spotted Linda, not easy to catch something like this, you have such a good eye for finding things like this.
Great shot of him climbing the tree!
We only have a few garter snakes. they are pretty small compared to this guy. I do like the little garter snakes.
Oh my goodness! I am scared of snake, of any kind.
The Cardinal, is my critter this week!
EEEK! I'm the "ultimate weinie" when it comes to snakes. Just simply cannot stand to even SEE them, much less come near them. I do, however, like the way they can climb a tree, using the bumps in the bark to hold on to. Still....EEEEK! :D

I'm not a fan of the snake. I would have been running the other way anyway, because you know, where there is one, there is always two. I applaud your ability to aim your camera without shaking. ;)
