We took in some sights around the Niagara region today. One of these was Balls Falls. On our way up the stream I spotted a snake in the creek. Turns out that the Niagara area is the norther extent of the range of the Northern water snake. They're beautiful snakes, too, with bands of gold and silver.
Ken was delighted!
