Walking across a backyard and this little guy was lying in the middle of the yard. Almost stepped on him before I saw him. Was really docile until I touched him then he took off with me in hot pursuit. He got a little violent when he was cornered and struck my boot a few times to tell me to back off. Don't know where I would have moved him to if I would have caught him as we were in the middle of suburbia Austin.

looks like a little rat snake to me but that's just a wag.

Great rodent control there with that snake.

And, I'm real curious: What is that yellow thing in the top picture?

About how long was it? You say it was a little guy but has the coloration of a mature Lindheimer. Juveniles aren't as dark.

Okay, I was thinking he was probably 3-4'. I caught a mating pair once that was still "attached". Male was 6' and female was 5'. She laid 18 eggs and we hatched them all. Released them all back to the wild a few months later.

Was the last thing I was thinking about when I walked across that yard. Guess that proves the saying "always expect the unexpected".

I meant outside of the house! Most wives would have a heart attack if he was hanging around the kitchen.
