Yay! Found two copperheads today!

I found two juvenile copperheads under rocks today. They were the highlights of what has been a pretty good week for snakes.

It's also been a great week for big black rat snakes and for racers. I found three black rat snakes in the 5 foot range this week and have seen 8 different black rat snakes total since Saturday. Also Saw 17 Eastern Yellowbelly Racers yesterday and 10 today.

Snakes are out in force..spring is here!

In CT, spring is not here yet. Is there anyway to encourage snakes to take up residence on my property (maybe not the copperheads)? I have an overabundance of moles, voles and mice and would much prefer snakes!

A pile of rocks in a sunny spot, preferably facing south would help. bigger is better. It gives them a place to hibernate.
