I was walking this morning when I noticed I was being watched. I think this is some type of rat snake (Pantherophis sp.).

Snake in a hole in a tree

When I walked past this hole in a tree, I saw someone stick out his tongue. When I came closer, the snake withdrew further into the hole. Judging from its cloudy eye, I suspect it is about to shed its skin.

I don't know the species. Judging by the cloudiness of its eyes, I think it might be ready to shed its skin.
