Crawling on and around the limestone bluffs were several slender and elegant Rough Green Snakes.
This is a mild-mannered snake that is often seen near water. It is frequently found climbing in low vegetation, where it blends in quite well – it is often overlooked because how well it can match its surroundings.
In the United States, their bright green coloration is only matched by their relative, the Smooth Green Snake.
They feed mainly on insects and spiders and are particularly fond of caterpillars. When captured, they never bite and are usually very gentle when held.
