Had another slithering guest last night while mowing.



This one was about a foot long.

Nah, that was the "before" picture. lol. Plus I don't have any trees tall enough to get away from a snake in my front yard.

You're wrong, It's a dead snake.

But it could also be either of those that you mentioned too.

It looks like a juvi black rat to me. Perfectly harmless.

You guys hate snakes almost as much as I do. Nothing gets your heart pounding like a prairie rattler.
