A friend of mine sent me this- it took place in his driveway. About 12 miles from my house. Alachua County, Florida. So Sunday morning, high noon, sunny, 85F.

Talkin about doin the Wild Thang!

Mine never seem quite so aggressive during breeding season.. Cool picture though...
 
WOW! Nice.

I've seen that once with eastern kingsnakes and several times with timber rattlesnakes...but never with corns in the wild. Lucky!
 
Too bad he didn't discover them early in the morning when Katie and I were still at my house- we could have raced up there to photograph them! Broad daylight and everything. I can't believe it. They live out in the country where people are on 5 acre or larger lots, on a dirt road. Their place backs up to some sort of park or wildlife preserve. Hardwood forest. River a mile away.
 
That's awesome! Poor female musta been putting up a fight. lol He's got her wound up like crazy lol

Oh so you just assume that the male is the aggressor? Hehe. She was probably struttin' her stuff, waggin' her voluptuous hips, seducing him to the point where he was about to go nuts and then he finally let out his inner beast and made passionate love to her. That's usually how it goes... Women are trouble. Trouble trouble trouble.
 
Vinny said it perfectly. It has been in my head, too. Ever since I saw the picture. LOL. Seems to bring out the teenager in me.
 
AWESOME Photo Nanci!!

I'd be so Jealous....but I know what you mean!...amazing!!
Thank you for sharing!

That is so cool! Im glad they left them alone. So many people might have acted differently. And Im happy that no one snatched them up, so we will have more corn snakes to find in the wild!
 
What good fortune to come across something like that!! They're so beautiful. I'd be torn between snatching them up for myself and leaving them alone to add to the wild corn population!
