'60's and '70's I was all over the US herping, stopped mid-'70's because too busy. I always wore one glove flipping not because of snakes, but because of wasps! They were everywhere under everything! Ground and wolf spiders (which I also collected), and scorpions, a favorite, as well, were prominent. Watching your vids in various locations I've noted an absence of all these things. I find this worrisome and kind of sad.

I wish you guys would compare a ribbon snake and garter snake side by side and show us how to distinguish between them. I try to identify snakes as they pop up on yours and other videos, and frequently get those two mixed up. But, I’m a noob to arm chair herping, although as a kid growing up in Georgia and Texas, I chased, caught, and on one occasion, got caught by a snake. Yup as a 12 or 13 year old, I tried to neck a copperhead and got tagged on a finger. Fortunately it hit my knuckle and I was only mildly envenomated. The snake bite wasn’t nearly as bad as my parents wrath after it was all over, lol…

Have you ever come across a pyle of garters doing their mating thing? When i was prolly 14 or so i was just walking through the woods like i did everyday i lived in farm country in mid Michigan, first i seen one snake cruising along i stopped an i could hear leaves rustling all around me as i stood still it was prolly hundreds of garters coming in all directions like they were headed to same place and my presence didnt faze them one bit it was as if they were in a trance i could picked them all up if i wanted it was like the twilight zone an i never understood why they were doing that until gained a bit more knowledge, it was trippy snakes moving everywhere
