I was outside on our patio, just about to refill the bird feeders, when I saw something on the food bin that looked like a snake! It was a snake! It is in the corner right by the house, and, later, it slithered down out of sight. Between chasing Sparky and Zephyr back into the house and before my camera batteries conked out again, I got a few pictures. We get quite a range of wildlife since we live right along the Olentangy River. I can't identify what kind of snake it is. (I tried using this site: www.oplin.org/snake/index.html ) Does anyone know?
The snake came back again today, so I got some more pictures. You can see them on my flickr site. I guess it might be sunning there or at least keeping warm, since the patio doesn't get much sunlight. Since it is a corner between our apartment and the one next door, it probably stays pretty warm.
Any ideas what kind of snake it is?
