:somebody thought it was one of those melanistic eastern garters from new york and southern quebec
:does it seem like a rat snake head to you guys?

Thats definately an adult black rat (if you saw this animal in person it would be a number of feet longer than the melanistic garters) also the only pic I've seen of those melanistic garters showing them with black chins, not white like the ratsnake.
