A backyard denizen

This fellow caught a bird about 30 minutes before I took this. You can see a bulge in the body to the right of the pole above the coil at the bottom of the picture. Any herpetologists out there who can identify the snake.

Yeowwww! At this point, I don't think he'd make an easy squeeze through the eye of the bolt.

It's a ''Stay Far Away From Me'' snake!
The clarity in this photo is wonderful.

An I'm not hungry any more snake. You're right Silvergal. I don't know if they can slither in reverse!
