Snakes - USA

Snakes- either you love them or you hate them; and if you hate them, you're fascinated by them. Come have a look...

It was hard to believe that this beautiful blue/black snake was the same subspecies as the racers that I commonly encounter in Florida. Not only did this snake display what I felt was a very different coloration, but it was a monster in both length and girth in comparison to what I'm used to seeing down south. I guess they do grow 'em bigger in the Midwest.
