so far, I'm guessing pine snake or hognose. both non-poisionous.
head is too dark for the pine snake. I can't see if it has a snub nose or not for the hognose. If the nose is normal, I'm going with "brown water snake". Nerodia taxispilota
Thanks beakerlj, I took a fast look at that same page earlier today and it seems hard, I agree with your guesses, As I thought the same when I looked at that page, But, I'm still uncertain. Doesn't look like it has a snub nose and it does seem to have the markings of a pine snake and brown water snake, Hope maybe someone comes along that knows snakes good so maybe I would know for sure. I'm going to take it to some woods that are away from houses and let it go, but, I'm still curious on what it is.
Rat snake.....good guys to have around.
I agree, that's a rat snake
Thanks to you both!
