Wandering Garter Snake

This was one of seven (I think) snakes that we saw during Snake Monitoring yesterday. It was our last time doing this, so I was glad to get one or two more photos. This is one of the two different species that we get here - a Wandering Garter Snake male. I was just lucky to catch the tongue out - no matter how hard I try, I almost always click just a split second too late.
