Thamnophis sirtali
Garter snakes are very thin snakes. None grow over about 4 feet long and most stay smaller. Most have longitudinal stripes in many different colors. Garters come in a wide range of colors including: green, blue, yellow, gold, red, orange, brown, and black
The garter snake is a colubrid snake genus common across North America, ranging from the Alaskan Panhandle to Central America. It is the single most widely distributed genus of reptiles in North America.
Saw this outside my house last night in the bushes. The one on the pavement I saw at the school I teach at today.
