This little harmless black snake tried to scare me with his cobra pose.

That would have done it for me.

I probably would have dropped the camera running in the other direction. Great picture Ron.

One snuck into my enclosed lani thru the siding , opened the door and had to use the broom to move it along and out the door.

Last week I had a face-off with two of them in the driveway. They came out from under the car. I was concerned that there was a nest of them.

Looks like a harmless black racer. They are afraid of people and can really move fast to escape.

I've seen some little harmless garter snakes around, but this black snake looks big! :shocked:
I've done a cobra pose in Yoga and it doesn't look like that!

Why did it have to be snakes? Indiana Jones. https://youtu.be/ClwIj3x24Q4

I take it you are braver than Indiana Jones alemorkam.

From the photo, it looks like it is still alive.


Sorry, but I will never have to worry about taking a photo that close of a live snake. :ohdear:

The King snake takes on a copperhead. Stay clear of a copperhead they will attack.

I had NO idea they could do that!
