Bogertophis subocularis subocularis

One of my favorite colubrids in North America and one of the first species I found after I moved to New Mexico.

This is a posed pic but this is my first wild suboc - found in a water meter box at work on my birthday. Eddy County, NM. August 2002.
I saw this snake darting across the road right before a downpour. Eddy County, NM. July 2014.
A beautiful suboc from the lava flow area. Lincoln County, NM. July 2016.
Found this snake shortly after the previous snake. Lincoln County, NM. July 2016.
Adult in situ on a rock cut. Terrell County, TX. June 2018.
