Hello,

Unfortunately I was not able to take a picture, but here's what I saw: while biking on a trail (near a creek - it will dry up in the summer)I saw the tail of "something", and I'm assuming it's a snake, but it could even be something else.
It was moving in a pretty straight line, it was about 3 feet long, and about 3 inches wide. The color was somewhat uniform, greenish (made me think of steamed zucchini!).
The unusual thing was the tail: fat and chunky all the way to the end, but the tip (maybe 1 inch?)was pointing up. I've tried too look at all the reptile pics I could find but none has a tail like this one!
Thank you!
