The
eastern yellow-bellied racer (Coluber constrictor) is
a fast moving snake that will dine on small birds, lizards, rodents,
insects and even other snakes. When frightened the yellow-bellied
racer will vibrate its tail. If the snake is lying in dry leaves
or grass the vibrating tail may sound like the warning buzz of
a rattlesnake.
