Re: Info request-Southern California octopi

California Two Spotted Octopus. I caught many when I lived in San Diego at the tide pools in La Jollla. Never got bit or heard of anyone getting bit. I actually had one in a 130 gallon aquarium for almost a year. I released him back in the spot I caught him in. Very intelligent creatures.

Re: Nylon Mesh Snake Death Trap

Yes, I used to use this mesh netting on my fruit trees and koi pond in the winter. It trapped lots of birds and a couple of really nice Bull Snakes, I quit using it.

It escaped in the house and was not rediscovered until 6 months later when it crawled across my mothers legs while she was sitting on the toliet. I promptly recaptured and fed and released, fortunately, we lived in a semi-rural area the...

Re: Another rare SD find

We used to catch these all the time when I was growing up in SD, 60's/70's. We erroneously reffered to them as "Green" Racers.
Mostly in coastal canyons near water, in tall grass. They were all most as common as the garter snakes.
