I think only the top pic was taken in Florida. The others, if I remember correctly, were taken in New Jersey. I used to be pretty adept at finding pine snakes back then. Also found quite a few coastal plains milk snakes in that area, too.
I remember an incident years ago, when Pete Kahl used to stop by my place in Maryland. He wanted to go to the Pine Barrens (he used to call it the "Barren Pines"), so I took him up there. We were in my Bronco bouncing along a sandy road when he asked me if I had ever found a pine snake crossing the road. I told him "nope, never have." It was exactly at that time that Pete yelled out "Pine snake!", right there in front of us, crossing the road.
Sure do miss kicking around in that areas. Used to find some really neat areas with lots of the thread type sundew plants growing wild. Hope it hasn't changed too drastically. It was a really special place to get lost in.
