Well, it's really tough to see any details with all the dirt on them and so far away, but the two in the first pic look like Black Racers to me from the slender shape of the head and body. But thin Black Rats can sometimes have a very similar shape too.

The second photo, even though it is all white from the strong sun glare looks to be a Black Ratsnake from what I can see of the face and stocky build.

Where those photos taken in the beginning of spring when they were coming out from under the house after winter brumation?
