Have seen 2 in the Mandeville area in the last week. Never seen them here before, is it uncommon for them to be in this part of the state?

Information on the LDWF web page says they are west of the Mississippi river and mainly in western Louisiana.
Pictures here. LINK

How to post pics
I’m really interested in seeing what you ran across.

I don't know what the hell a pocket gopher is but if it will eat moles I will take a few.

That's awesome. Audobon Zoo has some pretty ones on display as well. They have a handful for viewing and I'm sure more behind closed doors for breeding

No snake expert but Pine was my best guess

I am also no expert, but believe that’s a diamond back Watersnake

That is def a Diamondback water snake

Ok, thanks. Looked up image and some very similar pics of pine snakes popped up

Gotta question the photo. Is that another snake above it? If so, I'd have to call that one a Dekays which would lead me to believe that the snake in question is very small/young. That would explain the light colored markings for a diamondback water snake.

there were a ton of pine snakes at the audobon zoo last month. i think there was a program to release them.
