Pretty much all the snakes I see are small squished garters. Once, though, DH and I spotted a 18" long garter in the middle of a low traffic bit of street after dark; it was getting cool, and the little guy was soaking up the last of the heat. He took some convincing, i.e. nudging his tail with my shoe, but he eventually slithered off into the tall grass, where he belongs. Hopefully he grew up to eat rats. Lots of rats.
