Found it near my chicken coop. Pretty sure it’s a baby because it was rather small 10”-12” roughly. It Flattened its head and had a very noticeable V-shaped head when it got defensive. It was very vocal with its hissing and was making a lot of fast/strike like movements with its head.
Didn't get out, but I got a couple pictures from my truck

Found this in a tree in my yard in Upstate South Carolina. It looked all black to me with a white belly with random dark spots on it. It was probably 3-4 feet long.
Fascinating to witness these wild actions right in front of my door. Just sharing for the joy of snakes.
When walking thru the overgrowth on my property, I always stare closely at the path in front of me. I saw it in time, then slowly reversed direction, went back to the house, and grabbed the phone for a quick image. If that is a rattlesnake, that will be the 3rd or 4th sighting here in ~30 years. Last time was 4 or 5 years ago.
Felt bad for him so I took him off the glue trap and tried to clean off as much of the sticky stuff as possible. But I'm busy so I left him in a bucket with a little warm water. The snake didn't try to bite me either from being sluggish or grateful idk.
On the road of a trailhead. Was able to safely relocate him with a large stick
*Crotalus viridis*
Mainly need reassurance looks like a common water snake. Found this guy when my dog was barking at it outside. My dog got struck by this snake after reviewing security cam footage although I can’t find a wound
Rattlesnake or gopher snake? ~12 inches. Moving very slowly at dusk (65 degrees), looking to enter house. Los Angeles area.
I’ve seen plenty of garters in shed, but this looks weird. Just looking for thoughts.
Is this a Cottonmouth? I’ll post a picture below with good angle of head. Looks like a triangular/venomous snake of some sort.
Thank you ahead of time.

Pretty sure its just a rat snake, but they all start to look the same to me at a certain point.
Saw this dude by my trash can.
EDIT: I know I shouldn’t mess around with snakes I don’t know, I was using the extra fabric of my long dress all layered up like how I would usually use a thick towel to keep some distance from him and my skin (because that’s all I had on hand and there were cars coming). I assumed he was a fat garden snake, but I haven’t seen one with the stripes he has.
This beautiful idiot was in the road last night, obviously they’re unharmed. But they did manage to bite me through my dress when I went to grab em. Didn’t draw blood but I’m really curious what snake was the first to land a bite on me at my ripe old age of 25. 😂 Thanks in advance for any info!
