Big Snake

Here's one of two snakes I found at the lake today. I estimate it at 6-8 feet. Half is in the water and half is out. There was another just like it about five feet away hanging over the water in a fallen tree. I was 3-4 feet away before I saw it as I drifted by it in my kayak. Notice the giant bullfrog on the left edge of the image, behind the snake. -Kurt Horsley

Holy cow! I'm glad we don't have them around here. Nice photo Kurt!

Nice shot! I'll bet this stopped you in your tracks. Do you know what kind it is?
