Nothing special. Although I do wish most of the massasauga I find weren't kor.

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.....

Addendum: 01/10/2026
=====================
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....

Thanks for sharing. Do you know what kind of snake the pictures are or? Black with white belly?
Those last three look like black rat snakes to me.

That would probably make the most sense. Admittedly my skills in colubrid identification is very lacking.

The first one is a massasauga (find them regularly, unfortunately most are dead, or dying, occasionally find some that are fine). The 2nd is a water snake (not sure of species, not that familiar with them, and the last one is a black rat that was fairly calm compared to most I run into. Only tried to bite me once.

The black rats look better than what I see for sure.

We have some beautiful black rats out here. I've considered collecting a few over the years, but never have gotten around to it.
