FTF 9.2.17

My nature adventure for the week.

Actually one of the two of these adventures that I had, on the same day.... while riding my bike on the Big Dry Creek Trail.

Both of these guys had stretched out across the path.... to take the morning sun I guess.

Some may be ambivalent when meeting a snake.... but I am not one of them. 

So I always get a start, at the start of an encounter. 

Hence, no picture of the first one I met.... the big one.

Neither of these guys was really the least bit interested that I was there.... but I did have to take a minute to figure that out, and to figure my way around the 1st one as he was pretty much dead center on the path.

After a little, post ride, internet research I am going to say that this guy is either a Bull Snake or a Great Basin Gopher Snake.... and I am leaning towards the latter.
