After a long hot day in the 90’s and high humidityand tonight wasn’t much differnt.  What was interesting about tonight was the frequency of snake sitings crossing the roads.  I must have seen at least 4 in the course of two hours time as well as one dead one. In fact I almost hit two of them.  From what I could tell most were Black Rat snakes one I believe was a rather large garter snake. I would be curious to know if tonight was an unusually active night for reptiles. If so what factor(s) are contributing to their increased activity.

Just a thought
