Geese, Baby Geese, and Snakes at the Nortel Pond

The above snakes live at the Nortel pond.
The snakes below are examples of some other snakes.













There is virtually no chance that a Cottonmouth like
the one above would be found in Durham County. A
Cottonmouth is poisonous. You can see the distribution
map of the Cottonmouth in each county on the NC Museum of
Natural Science web page:

The above snake is a Brown Water Snake.
It is not poisionous.

The above Northern Water Snake is the kind of snake that I think
lives at our pond. It is not poisonous.
