My herp friend here at work looked at the first photo and says he's 97% sure it's a Northern Watersnake. He's as passionate about snakes as we are about birds so I trust his ID. I've forwarded him the closeup so he can get a better look. Will let you know if he thinks it's something different once he sees the new photo. Diana Pesek Cedar Rapids
