One  of the most beautiful snakes.   These non-poisonous mimics of the poisonous coral snakes( not in California) kill their prey by constriction.   I was on a hike in the lower end ofYosemite Valley when I came upon this snake in the process of eating a rat. King Snakes are a very valuable resourceful rodent control.  The king snakes have a reputation of finding and eating rattlesnakes.  I have two friends who have seen them attack and kill a rattlesnake.   I'm lucky if I see one of these snakes every few years.

​What Our Clients Are Saying

"We had a great time on  a two day tour in Yosemite with Ira!  We saw all of the highlights, created some memorable photographs and had a terrific time!  Our 11 year old son was charmed and entertained with scientific challenges and games.  Traveling with a local was the way to go and Ira made our experience memorable, fun and exciting."
