I'm wondering if someone can tell me what it is. I live outside Austin, TX, fairly rural location. Neighbors over the years have seen snakes around. I have lattice work on all my windows and today on the lattice work outside my bathroom window I saw a snake winding its way through the lattice. I couldn't see the head, but the body was a beautiful creamy white color, around 2 inches in diameter with some beautiful blue colors on the side or back. There was a pattern to the blue colors - it wasn't a solid pattern, it was interspersed with the white of the body. The tail was about 2 inches long, very thin and brown or tan. Since I saw only part of it, the part I saw was about 2 feet long.

I live in a duplex. A few years back, a tenant on the other side claimed he broke the bathroom window when he encountered a snake in the bathroom. We all laughed since this guy had a BIG drinking problem, but I'm not laughing today. I'm hoping this was not a dangerous snake.

Thanks in advance for all your help.
