Nerodia erythrogaster
Approximately 2.5 feet long. Kept moving the middle third of its body up and down. Not very shy.
Muddy pond bank
Not very intimidated by my presence. When I found him his back half was on the bank and his front have was undulating left and right. I assume he was trying to catch the fish fry that are in abundance in this pond.
