Donald found this little snake under some lumber he was moving (supplies for our pump house).
Its eyes were so cloudy (a sign that it's going to shed its skin soon, I've read) that it was hard to tell whether its pupils were round or vertical. (We didn't think it looked venomous, but sometimes it's hard to tell.) Fortunately, with the help of the camera's display, we were finally able to see that they were round (which means, in this area-- as far as I know, that it's non-venomous).
As for what kind of snake it was, I'm not sure. . . Rat snake would be my first guess, just because they're so common around here.
