• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Hello….Caught this Graybanded king off a cut, 35 miles south from Ozona. Bunch of other stuff photographed, but this is the "Holly Grail" out in West Texas! Thanks, Ken

Thanks for sharing too. I don't know much about kingsnakes, but thinking about field herping and turning over that rock or log and finding a treasure sure brings back great memories.
 
Awesome gray and I caught one very similar off highway 277 about 20 years ago also caught a grayband in the Davis mountains near McDonald observatory on the same trip. Shining the cuts is a lot of fun
