Deaton told Storyful that after getting closer to what he thought was a branch "the object started moving" and he "noticed it was a snake."
"I got my phone and started recording it going tree-to-tree," he added. Deaton said he gave the snake the nickname Darrel, and "Darrel is still out there wandering around," the landscape.
