Post Green Snakes at Sea
I was just out working on a mooring anchor. I live on Clark Island Cove where the sandy/muddy bottom (clam flats)
make accessing my anchors by foot very easy at low tide. As I was working away fixing ropes and chains I looked down
and a Smooth Green Snake was swimming/slithering at my feet. A very beautiful snake but we were150 feet away from the
rockweed - low tide line and another sixty feet from the high tide line and not salt water inundated rocky shore.
I hope it makes it way back with tide and does not get eaten by one of numerous shore birds or ducks that hank out here.

That's very interesting. I've never come across greens in water at all, nevermind in the ocean! Awesome.
