Description
Lake Jackson (New camera)
Crossing the parking lot at a boat ramp. It doesn’t say in the book if it’s venomous or not, but when I walked in front of it to get a picture of it coming at me. It turned and went back into the tall grass and shrubs it came out of.
Hope you all enjoy and please zoom.
Thanks for the comments.

Cool shot!! were is he off 2!
These guys do move fast in the water...I'll bet he/she loves hot concrete too. Just read where most water snakes are harmless...but not all, so still very smart to avoid direct contact with them. Nothing new for me there...
A creepy critter! Nice shot!
Great shot, Kim. Looks a bit creepy!
Great pic, right place at the right time. Glad I don't come across them though!!!!
that not venomous . it good to keep them alive for they do kill small animals that is a pest to us. cool shot
where is the water? a "nice" snake! very cool shot!!!!
What an awesome shot of this beautiful snake. SO well done. And your hands didnt even shake :-D
Incredible shot!
Excellent and interesting shot. Great details!
I dont like to meet them while hiking :)))

The snake was heading towards the water until I went around in front of it.
wow, big fat snake, think she was a)hungry or b)in the mood for a little sun:) you are pretty cool, thats why we can see now this great picture!!
cool capture
Very nice capture. Snakes are very intersting, especially from a distance lol.
Fantastic capture of this snake. Not worth it to find out how aggressive they are. Like the pattern of the scales. Dana
Incredible shot Kim.
They look a lot like our Northern water snakes. I don't know if the southern ones are any friendlier, but the Northern ones can be very nasty. Not venomous, but can still deliver a good bite. Crikey they're naughty! LOL.
Well it looks great in this capture but I wouldn't like to test if it is venomous or not.
I think this is as close as I want to get to a snake.... Nice capture. Aloha
They aren't venomous but like boas and anaconda, their mouths are filled with bacteria and a bite will usually flair up with infection. They are not aggressive as a rule but they will bite if taunted. Sacramento has many of these in our wetlands. Great shot of this one. He might have made a nice hatband. LOL
Splendid capture!!!
LOVE IT ;-)
great shot! :)
I would not want to find out.beautiful snake and shot
Next Time, maybe you should hold it in your hand then take a Picture of it(Only Kidding)..LOL..Excellent Shot
