I was at Cape Hatteras, North Carolina this past weekend on a fishing trip...unfortunately the fishing was very poor, but we did get to see a lot of wildlife including several snakes. We saw some cottonmouths and a beautiful eastern hognose that was black with red rectangles on its back (unfortunately it had been hit by a vehicle and killed.) We also saw this snake...I didn't get a real good look at it, but thought I knew what it was. But after looking at the pics when I got home, I'm not completely sure. What do you all think? This pic was taken right next to the sand dunes at ramp 45, for those familiar with Hatteras.
