Nope rope
Just interrupted this guy's lunch outside our house in Bastrop. Heard what sounded like a kitten crying outside. Came around the side of the house and something darted away from the house (think it was a lizard or frog) and the snake went trucking off down the side of the house. Guessing it is a red-striped ribbonsnake based off of google. Was around 20-24" based on the bricks in the background.
Could not get a picture because it was dark and the snake was moving, but I saw a really good size king snake Saturday night. Thick fella and just beautiful.
I almost ran him over, and I had to stop and go back with a flashlight to find him. Made sure he wasn't a coral.
Just a pretty snake. Biggest Texas King I've ever seen. Hopefully, he'll eat a copperhead or two for me.

My 9 year old was leading the way on a hike this weekend in the Sam Houston National Forrest. He calmly stopped turned back and said "be careful there's a baby copperhead." I've been drilling both boys on common texas snakes since they were 4 or 5. I use this thread a lot for quizzing them

First one I've seen this year.
Pulled a small coral snake out of my pool last night. 10" but the size of my middle finger. Was going to let it go then decided to smash it. My wife was not going to let me let it live.
Understandable, but sometimes we don't tell the wife lol

How long do you want to ignore this user?

Next time use the skimmer net on the long pole and see how far you can launch it.
Just can't quite put my finger on it.
In reality, I met my clients at the hotel in south Texas follow them to the ranch pull up beside them, step out and there's this guy exactly like this.
Ranch hand musta run him over before we got there

I'll delete to save thread.
Did mean anything arrogant by the post.

Very cool. I've seen beavers in the San Gabriel River both near Tejas Camp and above Granger Lake.

Having to restrain 13 year old me from making beaver jokes.
On step 12 of 22 step BAS Anonymous program. Please donate, the struggle is real.
Any identification idea? Son and I found this in the firewood. Still moist so I'd assume not very old at all
Looks rat snakey to me
Double post
12f can probably ID using the scale count on the head. That one's above my pay grade.

Tangent since it was bought up. Beaver sighting today, squished on a suburban backroad in Ft Bend County. Big flat paddle tail was unmistakable. A few days ago someone posted a photo on nextdoor of a decent sized oak chewed half through, maybe a mile... mile and a half away. Surprised to see so much beaver activity in this part of the world lately.
Knew someone in Simonton that battled them regularly on their property. I also saw a dead otter on a bridge over Bear Creek last week. Someone ran over it.
Fun day at the deer lease. In addition to the snake skin we found above we also went on a walk and saw what I think might have been a coach whip. Long/ skinny/ hombre multicolored guessing on the breed
Then leaving the stand we had a copper head cross our path and used it as a teaching lesson for nope ropes. We had discussed them earlier but real life is a better teacher.
I also gave my son his first knife and we worked on some whittling.

Water snake. Not sure if plain-bellied or yellow-bellied.
