Two snake sightings at the Preserve! Spotted this

Two snake sightings at the Preserve!

Spotted this DeKay's Brownsnake (Storeria dekayi) near the Nancy Creek Overlook in the Woodland Loop. This common, nonvenomous snake is native to our area, and its diet of slugs and snails should make it a welcome sight in any habitat - but it is the species most often misidentified as Copperheads, which can lead to it being killed unnecessarily. Brownsnakes lack the distinctive pattern of Copperheads, and they tend to be small and secretive.

This Copperhead (Agkistrodon contortrix) was crossing the path near the Field Research Center off Land O Lakes. These common, venomous snakes have thick bodies with distinct patterning, a triangular head, and elliptical pupils. If you see one, just give it plenty of space and know it will do its best to avoid you. Keeping your pets leashed helps ensure their safety.

Our friends at The Amphibian Foundation (@amphibianfoundation) have a range of educational programs and courses for all ages designed to introduce, inform, and instruct on all kinds of critters. Visit amphibianfoundation.org to find out more!

This Art of Nature 2024 sneak peek is from "Sights" by Julia Hill (@sculpturethings). It can be found in the wetlands at 1 Emma Lane.

"'Sights' is a teleidoscope made from salvaged materials collected from Atlanta's forests and fringes. The interactive scope invites visitors to engage with a sense of wonder and curiosity, playfully seeking fresh and interesting perspectives, and expanding their relationship to the world."

The 10th Annual Art of Nature was curated by our 2024 Artist-in-Residence Dorothy O'Connor (@dorothy.oconnor.9), and can be enjoyed through June 9th. Learn more at bhnp.org.
