My first time seeing a water snake I was actually terrified and I ran. I was about 9 and had been told stories of water moccasins chasing people.

Hehe. I was afraid of snakes when I was a kid, too. I started catching them after watching Steve Irwin do it on TV. The first time I caught a northern water snake, I wasn't positive that it was one. I was pretty young at the time. I was holding it by the tail and it struck me in the hand with like two if its teeth. Afterwards someone told me that it was a water moccasin. I freaked out for a second, thinking I got bit by a venomous snake, but I was pretty sure cottonmouths didn't live this far north, and they don't.

I was actually fascinated by snakes when I was younger. It was that experience that caused me to research the snakes in my area. It used to be my hobby to look for as many different snakes I could.

That's funny. Back in Dallas when I was younger there would be stories every summer about mountain lion sightings in our neighborhood. We lived in the fucking suburbs.

Dumbasses were seeing bobcats and calling them mountain lions :lol:

Pretty drastic difference there.

Same here. I used to spend countless hours in the creek and exploring abandoned old barns -- flipping over boards and shit looking for snakes.

I used to do it all the time, I still will occasionally lift up a board or a few rocks when I am out looking for mushrooms. Just to see what kind of snakes may inhabit that area.

Resembles a corn snake to me. But it could be several different species. The best way to Identify a snake is by its head and pupils sometime patterns and color.
