Thank you so much for your content! I'm a huge fisherman, always bushwhacking to get to the creek or river. I used to be so scared of snakes. A little knowledge goes a long way... Out of the many videos I've watched of yours, I am yet to see any of these creatures seek to harm you. They just want to get out go your way. I am now only respectfully intimidated, not scared.
Love those yellow butterflies and the flowers. You've an eye for beauty.
Each of your adventures is special in its own way. This one is no exception.Thanks for sharing!
The butterflies were amazing.
That Coachwhip was freaking awesome
Great video today. That Coachwhip was extraordinary. The Timber with that amazing set of buttons awesome, and in a herping video for you to say it was a Disney scene with the butterflies congregation made me truly laugh. That single Monarch butterfly was superb as well. Thanks.
Great video Noah! I just love when you find something like that coachwhip…….i just love to hear and see your excitement after all the work you put in. It certainly was a good looking snake! Take care and happy herping!!! 😄💙🐬🐊🐍🫶🏻
It’s funny that you said something may have peed where the butterflies were. My son and I were talking about that at the beginning of the video. We have a spot where we always pee off of our porch. No grass grows there, but hundreds of butterflies congregate there every day during the warm months.
The last Box Turtle stole the show ! Nicest one i`ve ever seen. Thanks for sharing. Herp On !
Those butterflies are most likely cloudless sulphers and/or little yellows, and grey hairstreaks. They are puddling, which is the practice of gathering mineral rich fluids from damp areas. Damp gravel and dung tend to be favored. Many insects do it but butterflies are the most conspicuous. Great video, love those Timbers!
Your King and Coachwhip are Amazingly beautiful, Georgia has the prettiest snakes.
Our fall native flowers are exceptionally nice too!
Whips are so under rated. Glad you dig 'em :)
💯
Love your channel dude. Basically its how i spent most of my childhood. Flipping shit looking for snakes.
LOL That Easter Garter Snake was like a lighting bolt, so super fast. That was awesome to see how fast they could get. Nice snakes you have found again, also my favorite snake of all time, the cute Copperheads :3
Love the black coaches, found a few this year in AZ (a few at night in the bushes). Love the boxies out that way, dig the orange.
What a bunch of great species. That coach at the end was beautiful. So were the 2 timbers. Extremely beautiful. I appreciate all your work on these videos. You are a legend bro. I cant wait for the next one. Stay fly my guy. Catch you on the flip side.

I had a box turtle visiting my yard for about 8 9 years. Only like a day or so a year early in the year. He was a nice big really dark orange and some yellow a big old turtle. But this year no show unless I just missed him. Here in Indiana we have lost a lot of habitat to crop fields and just herbicides etc.. nothing like when i was a kid lot of things are just few and far between.
I was expecting a Hognose episode but I have no complaints. Thanks for all the time you put into this.
Excellent video guys! Love the scenery and that beautiful box turtle at the end 🔥
Beautiful coachwhip! 👍
💯
Coachwhips are def my fave snake hands down. Have many stories involving them from way back. Glad to see them thriving and still out there. 🤘🤘🤘💪💪💪. Keep up the great content Noah!😎
Good Lord... look at that unit of a copperhead! I thought at first it was a gaboon. Hahahaha
Quality over quantity, I like it. 👍
Copperheads have pretty cool under bellies, especially the tip. Yellowish green
Awesome whip!
Here in north central TX we haven’t seen fall yet. 90 this last week.
I'm a simple herp lover. I see "coachwhip" and I click.
While staying in the Peruvian Amazon, I always peed off the porch, you should see the butterflies and moths that came to it each day!
Luv me a good Coachwhip, & that was a ripper!!
Killer coach.
Alabama and that part of the country seems to have the best looking timbers
My dad would tell me stories of black snake hunters, hunting snakes for restaurants back in the 1950s. They would gather up quite a few. I am not sure what species they were hunting. Maybe coach whip snakes? I am surprised there are no repopulation programs. I don’t know that I ever saw one as a kid growing up in the 70s and 80s. Glad there are some still around.
Man your fast 😆 Beautiful snakes 👍
no problem with the shaking... i shake like that around people, even my family
I love Timber's!
Noah, butterflies are drawn to urine. In the case of your butterfly clips, looks like a very broad area of urine. LOL. They call it "puddling" when butterflies congregate on the ground, but when there's no puddle, it's gotta be urine. I relieved myself on a trail once, and on the way back out, lots of butterflies were already on the spot. Were there cows on that property?
Nice big copperhead
Let's go I know where rattle snake are here in Athens TN
That's the yellowish chain markings I see in the eastern king sometimes in upstate SC
I wonder what county of north east Georgia you are in
What tips do you have for herping in Pinewood Florida with a lot of needles and shelter?
Can I ask what kind of flowering bush/tree that was. The purple flower at the start of your video?
Passionflower!
Video up - day made
Can you go herping on my property in SC? 70 acres wooded heavily
Coachwhips have plenty of personality alright, they like noses, or at least mine.
Hi Noah
Nice Whip! And what is it with butterflies and mammalian excrement and urine. Salt loving little flies. 💩
I saw 2 human pattern on box turtle and Michael jackson.
Interesting…
Nice large and chunky timber rattlesnakes, kingsnake and coachwhip. I still insist that Eurasian racers are more intelligent.
How many times are you bitten off camera per video?
1412 Myrtis Inlet
Butterflies eat poop and pee? Say it ain't so. It it just me, or can garter snakes haul ass in an almost supernatural way? They barely move from side to side, yet they shoot through the grass or dirt in a way that other snakes don't. Watching a Copperhead or a hognose move across the ground vs a garter snake... very different.

I always tear down the morning glory vines on my fence when they die every fall and pile them in the corner of my backyard for my pet box turtles to hibernate under. I did it the other day and got a decent pile. Now everyone is already moving until the pile and digging into the ground underneath the pile. I suspect I won't be seeing my pets too many more times until spring comes again.
“They may be beautiful, but beware! These butterflies are ‘puddling,’ which is when butterflies or moths feed on the salts and minerals found in mud puddles, urine, scat, and sometimes carrion,”. Found this on google!
I don't understand why some people try to keep coachwhips and racers as pets. They always seem to do horrible in captivity and end up dying. They are too hyper and nervous to be pets and they always end up rubbing their noses open against glass or screen lids. I understand that a lot of people like to keep pet snakes and even I have some pet snakes but people need to stick with species that do well and thrive in captivity and leave the species alone that don't do well in captivity.
I dont understand why people move animals out of the road when they are interfering with evolution and tainting the gene pool by helping stupid animals survive to breed.
💯
It is doable, but it needs a very different approach compared to the average snake in captivity. They need much more space and lighting. Almost like a snake lizard hybrid. In short, they are unsuitable for most people.
