My nature journal excerpt from April 27, 2013...
© Photographer: William Wise | iNat Observation: 25681618 - Black Racer; Clakre County, Georgia. April 27, 2013.
Normally I go on day hikes or extended trips whenever I can get away in hopes of finding some cool wildlife. Well, when I reached down to open the lid to my sprinkler system valves in my backyard I wasn’t expecting a long, slender, rapid Racer to shoot out at me! Just goes to show that sometimes those good wildlife shots are right in our own backyard!
Racers (as the name implies) are typically fast moving snakes with great vision and are gone in a flash before you even realize they are there. I was therefore particularly surprised that this one was so docile and compliant with a short photo session.
