Nice! Please consider adding this spotting to the Snakes of the Southwest Mission! http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/1249...

Can't really see the tail but I think you are correct based on the banding and head.

This was a wild snake. I razzed him a little to get him to pose for a picture. Found him near Van Horn, Tx
