Came across a 3-4 foot long black snake behind the house today while doing yard work, with a lance-shaped head, acting aggressive. Thought for sure it was a cottonmouth (I've seen them so dark they were basically black). Due to pets, family members, and contractors working on the house, I took out out with a shotgun. Turns out it was a hognose. Now I feel like a total idiot.
