Accidentally ran over this guy in our Ranger while he was trying to cross the road. He looked tore up and struggling so we lopped his head off. Saw another crossing a different r road later that day. I guess the cooler weather prompted them to come out.

And for good fun I almost put my hand on this lover killer in black!

Spring. I saw one last summer too. I had a Coral on my patio a couple of weeks ago, as well.

Yep, milksnake. Where from?
How can you tell the difference between a milksnake and a scarlet kingsnake?

Western South Carolina "midlands" near Camden. In a horse barn in a pasture, but within about 200 feet of a marshy area

Was in the dark, hard to see. Wasn't until saw the photo with flash, that I saw the head shape and that bugged me.

Only about 12-15" long not very big around

Probably my first non DBWS post, so I am going to hedge my bet and say broad-banded coral copper moccasin….

Those vertical jaw lines still say WS, but I'll leave it to the experts

This is all I could get of the snake. It was slowing backing into the cabinet it was hanging out in. Only about 6" of him was originally put in the sun.

I would guess he was a little bigger than my thumb, diameter wise.

Coachwhip.

Although this one doesn't look as pissed off as they normally do.

I found a skin similar sized earlier in the day.

I think the homeowner will be unpleasantly surprised if she sees it there. Gotta figure out how to run it off.

This little guy greeted me at my garage door in Parker Co about a month ago. Was shaking his tail when I was messing with him, but no rattle

The last two coachwhips posted here are the two least pissed off coachwhips I've ever seen.

Makes sense… this one looks like it's starting to get pissed.

I feel so ashamed. Walked out to refill bird feeders and had about a 4' coachwhip resting his chin on the birdbath tray full of water we have on the ground. And of course my phone is sitting on the table on the porch... When he saw me he hauled azz back to the prairie edge beyond our fence. Not sure if he was there for the water, looking for the crickets around our yard, or hanging out in the low growing flowers lurking for hummingbirds. Hopefully he will come back.

You can tell by the eyes it's a coachwhip. It's pretty warm in Texas as well, we see more coachwhips than others when it is warmer.

Grew up in Humble and never saw a coachwhip there, pretty neat you saw one in Kingwood

I have had one coachwhip in my yard in Humble in the 15 years we have been here.

Many copperheads, a few corals, a couple of water snakes, and lots of Texas Brown and garter snakes.

Nothing I like about black widows. And while I think about it, the brown recluses in my attic.
