This Black Racer (I think) has taken up residence in an old wren house. It seems to like having its meals delivered.
This should put a smile on the faces of a few Bluebirders, seeing as how they don’t like wrens very much. 🙂
I shot these over a few days. The snake has good vision and is extremely wary.
UPDATE 4/2/2011 – Jeff at HerpNet.net tells me that this is a western rat snake aka a black rat snake.

If I look out the window and there’s not a bird in sight, I know this guy is nearby.
