It's a garter snake, which, to be honest, I don't know all that much
about. They are quite common here on the south-west coast of Canada.
Though they can be easily found foraging for frogs and other snakes
in gardens and the like, around here (I was rather excited when I
discovered this) they will often hunt for fish and such in tide pools
or even the open ocean (this one was on his way down the beach when I
spotted him).
I didn't know about them going into the ocean or even tide pools. Of
course I've spent my entire life land-locked. Do you get the huge
masses of them that appear in parts of Canada when they end hibernation?
I live in Chicago where we have our very own variety of Garter Snake
although it is very rare and I've never seen one. San Francisco also
has its own variety.
