Snake identification

I try not to look at these this time of year, or every fallen limb looks like it.
I agree, he's a fatty though. They don't generally get that big around up here.
Im not a fan of snakes so much, so I did some research and learned where I live there are only two poisonous snakes- copperhead and water moccasins. After learning to identify them I’m much more at ease when I come across snakes

It’s either a ribbon snake or garter snake. A ribbon snake will have white scales on its face just in front of its eyes. (I took a graduate level herpetology course in college)
Agreed. Garter snakes have unique patterns in every region. They also also have a color shift they can do when they go into defense mode, which is what this snake appears to be doing.
It’s a garter snake but without the colored markings I can’t tell which for sure but looks like common eastern.
Garter snakes are notorious for flattening their bodies out to make them look fatter than they are. Cool snake for sure.
