Snake in the Tree

First Son announced he could see a snake from the kitchen window at breakfast a few days ago. We all ran over and searched for it, six-year-olds not being known for being specific in the placement of sighted animals. Kansas Dad finally spotted a tiny little snake hanging out in the tree. You might be able to see it near the top right of the picture. (Kansas Dad took it through the window.)

I went out later and got a slightly better picture from the other side of the tree (after the snake had moved a bit).

I'm pretty sure it's a Western Ribbon Snake.
