Decided to go glamping of a sort this weekend. loaded up the back of my truck with shit i never take like a ginormous rotomolded cooler, and a mountainbike, and a cot and tent instead of my hammock and tarp. I even brought my fucking ipad to watch movies from. I brought aUSB powered fan to use in my tent. How bougie am i now? I even have 50 Amperes of 120vAC on tap approx 25' away if i choose to use them.
After dinner i went for a walk on a fishin pier. Ran across almost a dozen of these snakes and maybe five red eared sliders. Im fairly sure the snakes are Diamondback Watersnakes, but im not a snake guy so im going off of sesrching moreso than my own knowledge of snakes. This was the only photo i got of the two species in close proximity together. The lake i am at has Texas Rat Snake, Cottonmouth, Copperhead, Diamondback Watersnake, and maybe a half dozen rattlers of some sort but I'm fairly sure I'm right about the ID here.
The lake has these aluminum things someone welded and they dropped in to provide a habitst for panfish and larger to have somewhere to go. The lake is so low that what is typically 12+ feet below the surface has become a perch for surface life.
Anyway thanks for coming to mutual of omaha's wild kingdom
