Well, sir snake-a-lot escaped from the basket before DH could get home and I didn't get any close up pictures. I'm still not certain what kind it was - but at least it appeared rather mild-mannered and non-poisonous. I'm attaching one more that might show the pattern better, that I took while he was sunning in the tree.

Thanks for everyone's help - and that good snake site. Blmlb - very close to that pattern!
