I came across this today in Hernando county.
This is only the second one I've seen...ever. I was just about to step on it. About 18" long and fast, a lot faster than the last one I saw many years ago.
It was not on my property and I did not touch it or harm it, just took this lousy cell phone pic from a safe distance.

You're right, it's a lousy picture. :D
Best I can tell, it's either a coral or king snake.

on edit:
Or, Jim could be correct.

It's either very dangerous...or it's not. :(

I dont see any red on it.. I check every native Florida snake.. and it matches none of them.

That's what I think it is a coral or king snake that was born with those colors. Or near a nuclear power plant ! :eek:
