Snakes Are Out

Well, the sneaky snakes are out in force. This critter showed up on the driveway and was so big Mr. Fix-It and I could see him from the house. He was around 5 feet long and 2 ” in diameter. He had been eating because there were bumps all the way to the tail and he was really slow. I poked him with a stick to make sure he was alive and not hurt, and he showed me he was fine by coming after me!!! As best as I can tell, he is a Prairie King Snake and they are pretty aggressive. So, I took off with a squeal and gave him his space. We leave king snakes alone because they eat the pigmy rattlers and copperheads.
