Hi everyone, I took a very short walk in Sapsucker Woods before going to work this afternoon and was lucky enough to spot a handsome Eastern Garter Snake and a fairly large Northern Water Snake resting just a few feet away from each other in the transitional area after the boardwalk heading south. Not sure how common the latter is, but I thought I'd mention it.
Also saw Common Grackles, a Hairy Woodpecker, and a Red-bellied Woodpecker excavating a nest cavity. Briefly heard a Red-breasted Nuthatch.
