Between the 6’s we backed to a pond, our snakes were predominantly racers, along with bears, coyotes, bobcats gators and one panther.

We moved south of 44 two years ago backing to a prairie. A few rattlesnakes have been spotted within the village and two Corals. Someone will always post on neighborhood site, where and when.

After Milton the walking paths that border acres of prairies, between Water Lilly and Magnolia Plaza were flooded. Multiple water moccasins were noted and warnings went out to be aware.
I am glad I do not have to worry about water moccasins here around CR466.
