Thanks for everyone's input. I do think the snake is the one in the pic Tim posted which he stated is not poisionous. I do agree that if you build it, they will come and they have. The frogs, which I have many of them, birds, spiters, dragonflies, lizards, the fish mutiply and I had been concerned recently about that and had given some away. Nature will take care of its own. My neibor had told me last year he had seen a couple of snakes when he was mowing the grass. This year he had said he saw a snake which appears to be the one I saw in the pond. I have met snakes before in my lifetime. It is not the thing I look forward to but they are going to be around from time to time. I really don't mine the snakes that I do not see. And it I had been able to get a pic of the snake and the fish it would have been the pic of a lifetime. But as the case of keeping a gun, it is never close to you when you really need it. I would be more ok with the snake in the flower bed than in the pond because I really like to wade into the pond to clip off the lily pads. I do have a pair of hip waders that I bought to use if the water was to cold and I really needed to go in the water. I did work at the ponds edge pulling over grown plants out but I have not seen any sign of the snake. I know that does not mean he is gone. I will be wearing the waders the next several times I need to get into the pond. I did find a garden snake in the flower bed at the front of the house. I did not want to kill it but did get a pic this time. Not the best but I will post it later.
