Notes

Found sunning itself during a morning nature tour. These photos were taken about 30 min later (around noon) and then it was observed taking cover in an old rotted stump. I have been herping for almost 20 years, and have found many of these snakes in NE Harris county, but Jesse Jones Park is the only place I have seen primarily white specimens, and I find them here quite frequently.
