Virginia striatula
Little, Black, Gray, Brown, NOT Poisonous.
Leaves, Texas, Texoma, Spring, Ground.
It Was Very Calm For The Most Part.
I would have to say Rough Earth Snake. There are very few other options it could be, being a small plain snake, with a small pointy head.
Nice spotting! Is there any chance you saw what its belly looked like? (color? pattern?) I'm sure it had a plain color and no pattern, but that color will help with the ID.
He's so tiny! Good shot
guarder snake is my guess but i dunno personally i wouldn't pick up random snakes my dog was bit by a rattle snake
It could be a Rough Earth Snake, Virginia striatula:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virginia_st...http://srelherp.uga.edu/snakes/virstr.ht...That's my best guess at this point. Cute little snake.
