Snake

Went to move a blind..this is what I found..dang near jumped out of my pants before I could pull my Glock..thought it was a buzz tail..but upon inspection it was just a rat snake..backed away..came back the next morning and he was gone

That's a coachwhip snake.

Don't like snakes

Yes, we have a lot of them here. Mean if you mess with them.

Yup...good snake...

That’s cool!!

Good job!!

no need to kill

I walked up on one years ago while dove hunting in tall grass. He decided the inside of my pants leg was a good place to hide during his crazy fast slither. We both escaped without injury but it got real interesting real quick.

Coach whips are fast. Hoping to get a picture I tried to catch up with one once. Man he was quick.

Coach whips are extremely fast. I was cutting the lawn last week and saw one in an open area. I jumped off my mower just to see if I could catch him but he made it into a mott of trees and went up into the branches. I had some when I used to keep snakes years ago and they are kind of ill tempered and do like to bite.

Fast.

Snakes are ok as long as they stay away from the house and blind.

Yep, that’s a Coachwhip.

Yeah if you'd have spooked him too bad he wouldve made you jump out of your skin!

Coachwhip "Hey, didn't know there was already one snake in here! Mind if I hide with you"?

"Though their typical prey includes rodents, birds, lizards and eggs, coachwhips will eagerly consume rattlesnakes when they have the chance. It is not clear if coachwhips have immunity to rattlesnake venom or not—they use their great speed to avoid a rattlesnake's strikes."

= good snake!

well SW, that one left a lot of trash
