This is for all you snake experts out there. Can you tell what kind of snake it is by the way it swims? We saw two when it was warm & sunny a few weekends back....one that swam flat on top of the water and another that swam with its head on top but its body is below the surface.

Newbie,

Not a snake expert but thought this link might help:

The only thing I can tell you about snakes is . . . If I see one . . . I'm going the other direction.

Cottonmouths are bouyant swimmers, therefore, the one on top could have been a cottonmouth. The rule is that if you are swimming and get bitten on the ear, you were probably bitten by a cottonmouth. If you get bitten on the leg, it is probably an alligator.
