Nov 9, 2018: Brown Snake



A couple mentioned  that they had recently seen several little brown snakes up near Spirit Lake and wondered what they were.  I told them that they were probably Brown Snakes and that they were uncommon at the Park.  We parted and I hadn't gone more than 50 yards when I spotted this Brown Snake on the lakes trail, just west of the bluff area.  The subspecies found in our area is the Texas Brown Snake (Storeria dekayi texana).
