If it has a thick body, and a triangle shaped head, it is poisonous generally. Looks like a cottonmouth to me (cant tell much from the head sideways)

On second thought, looks like a rat snake.

We have a rat snake that has come to visit for the last couple of years. It's darker than yours, but looks similar:

Heck that's a BIG snake !!
Peaches he was in the sand under some wood, maybe he needed a bath. Mike.. I talked to Tim The Shorts, the outdoor expert in this area and he said in his opinion its a water moccasin. |

Water Moccisan is a Cotton Mouth - same thing.
Its a rat snake, or a water snake - do not think it is posioness - not that you should go pet it. |

The water moccasins I've seen, and thankfully, it's been few (one was in the lake a couple of summers ago) had markings on them - they weren't as solid. Here's a link I found But better safe than sorry is MY personal rule with snakes.

bwaaah piffffle Billy...
Call that a snake??.. here's some good snakes we have running around here http://www.reptilegardens.com/reptile/topten.html Closer to home, many people think the Cottonmouth (Agkistrodon piscivorus) and the Copperhead (Agkistrodon sp.) are very deadly. They are not, quite the opposite in fact. The maximum amount of venom a Cottonmouth can deliver is just barely enough to kill a single person. The Copperhead is even less deadly, even untreated, a Copperhead bite causes death in considerably less than 1% of the bites. Keep in mind that these two snakes rarely deliver anything close to their maximum dosage. We let the kids keep those cottonmouth things for pets ;-)) Btw.. a spade fixes all things snake like if they start eating the pets! |

All I know is when I picked up the piece of plywood and saw the snake looking at me I dropped it so fast... I wanted no part of him and I was hoping he wanted no part of me : )
You can keep all those other snakes down under, I will not complain ! Mike.. you ever see anything like that in your back yard ?? |
