I live on a river and constantly see garter snakes in the summer. I've even had my dogs catch them -- eat them -- and then throw them up in the house!! I had a garter snake crawling up my stairway from the 1st floor to the 2nd one summer. Freaked me out!! Julie Ford

thanks for all the nice comments. As posted above, the Garter snake is non-poisonous. I was about 4 feet away. That's the minimun focusing distance for the 100-400. TCProimages
