You should have seen how many birds were lined up on the fence and flying down close to the snake. I guess they thought they were going to catch a big worm? I get chills every time I look at this photo.
This cements my dislike of the Summer months. Thank goodness for husbands. I don't know what I would have done without Dwayne! He sent me back in the bedroom and he made it go away. I know I talk a lot of smack about him but today... he is royalty!
Has anyone had any encounters with snakes this Summer?
We always have snakes. Next to our house used to be a big hay field, now its a parking lot. Since the arrival of a parking lot the snakes live in my yard instead of come to visit once in a while. The dogs really like to chase em' then I freak out when one of them actually gets a snake and bites down... ewe!!
ReplyDeleteOMG! I am so glad I live in the city!
ReplyDeleteShelly my son would have loved this! Every day he is in the back yard looking for more snakes! He said it looks like a Mahogany Rattler(sp). He needs a better look, lol
ReplyDelete*shivers* I'm getting chills just looking at that picture too! I hope that is the first and last one you all find!
ReplyDeleteAw S!@&! now I'm nervous. Thankfully we haven't encountered any. Whenever I talk to people about them they say aw their just garden snakes. No thank you! Thank God for husbands is right!
ReplyDeleteI don't what I'd have done if I saw that big one in my yard...maybe run to get my gun. Seriously.
ReplyDeleteI found a pencil one in our front door the other day. YUCK . It really freaked me out.
We live beside a cane field, so they come and come and come and I have this fear that they are making home under my house.
When dh mowes he finds them. yuck. So glad no one was out there playing!
