A snake photo from young herpetologist-photographer Alex Bentley

0905%20Salem%20AlexBentleySnake111.jpg

Alex Bentley sent this photo in to “your best shot” at Roanoke Times, and we wanted to share it with those on the So Salem blog.

He writes: This is one of my best shots. It is a common garter snake (Thamnophis
sirtalis) that I found and photographed at a pond in salem this summer (6/8/08). Thank you, Alex

We featured Bentley earlier this summer in So Salem, and he shared photos with us once he got back into the states. For a link to the most previous blog, click here. Here’s a link to the original story.

How about you? Do you have an interesting hobby? A great photo of the friends or family? Youth sports scores and pictures to share? Send pictures and ideas to us at news@sosalem.com, and we’ll put ‘em up here on the blog.
