There are a few reasons. One is, snakes (like most animals) are more active in the spring. They've been hibernating, and now it's time to get out and eat. The weather is better in the daytime; once summer gets here it will be too hot, so the snakes will be more active at night, when people are less likely to see them. And of course, spring is mating season, so they are more active as they search for suitable mates.
If you live in any of the "under construction" areas around the lake, you'll see more snakes because they are being driven from their old habitat, and are seeking new places to live. (Contrary to popular belief, "more development" won't mean "fewer snakes," at least not for several years. It will, however, mean "more snakes and humans sharing space." Keep that in mind if you're thinking of buying a lot in Rattlesnake Ridge.)
