We had a snake the other day. My friend's son mowed our yard for us and it shot in front of him when he first started. I have not been able to find out what kind of snake it was. We poked at it and it did not do a thing.
Any thoughts?
Looks to me like an eastern Hognose. http://www.uga.edu/srelherp/snakes/hetpla.htm

Dear Heavenly Day~ Please tell me you were using some sort of massive telephoto lens to take those pictures! If not, you were ay too close! Well, at least too close for me! My heart is racing!!!

Yuck! He looks kind of big. I do not like snakes! Had one creeping up on me a couple of months ago while we were sitting out in the woods. He was just a rat snake, but I was still not a happy camper.
Oh my goodness, that is some snake! My kids would love it. We saw one on a nature walk a few weeks ago -- it looked like it was someone's pet that escaped. I only saw the last part of it, the kids saw the head --- they walked ahead of me and I didn't realize thats what they were looking at!!
I love being a wife and mother. There is no better job in the world! I have been blessed with so many wonderful opportunities and I want to share them!
