I have a rarely matched passion for all things “snake” but you will be able to guess that from my spottings. :)

Sign In to followNot quite sure this is a kingsnake - they don't look like this from your part of Texas. Do you have any other photos? How long was it?
Thanks,
Cameron
Most likely an Eastern Gartersnake - Thamnophis sirtalis but additional photos will help. You are just a bit north for queensnakes although not by much so if it is a queensnake, this is a particularily interesting spotting. Do you have more photos?
Thanks Brendan---it just looks so black in the photo. We will call it that then!
I am not sure this is a Prairie Kingsnake...do you have any other photos?
Thanks! Cameron
Thanks! It will be a huge hit!
Jess- Do you mind if I post this photo on the Center for Snake Conservation Facebook page? It is not every day that you see a hog-nosed snake swimming.
Sweet Spotting!
