Snakes get a lot of attention out here in the hills. I have several good photos that each represent a different experience.

There he was!!! Trussed up tighter than a Thanksgiving turkey! The netting was a covering for my strawberry bed and I guess he thought it would be a good place to hide and wait for dinner to come along.

I carefully snipped him free and sent him on his way.

Was he grateful??
No, the little sucker even tried to attack me!

Hrrrrumph!!!

    Great photos of the snake, Vero. Sorry he wasn’t grateful that you cut him loose. 🙂 No snow here just colder than it has been for a few days.

    We had flurries off and on all day yesterday, was quite slick when I got out of work last night. Flurries again today but I hope they won’t amount to much. I’m ready for birds and flowers 🙂 And I must say, the snakes are not my favorites of all your pics, Vero, lol.

    Trussed up critters are rarely grateful. Had it not been for you, he wouldn’t have been in that position!

    Common black snake. They average around four feet most of the time. Some are a bit larger,
