black ratsnake or northern black racerback?


More pictures of this very long snake, and a couple others like him/her are in my picasaweb album http://picasaweb.google.com/pegazzani/JulyNature?feat=directlink. We live in a part of Virginia where both are known to live.

The checker board pattern on this beautifull snakes underside is a dead give away that its a black rat snake. Common in the N.E.. The further south you go the more color varations you see. There are orange and green ratsnakes also.
