SNAKE!!!



I told you the South is a snaky place.

You call that a snake? Cute though…

Here’s a Florida snake…

They say they put trackers on the males they catch and they will lead them to the females…
They find a lot at “ladies night”

They have fangs and poison, sort of. Be afraid if you are a slug, earthworm, or cricket.

I got bit by a Rattler about that size, it just hung on my finger

Copperhead that size bit at me thumb when I was about 13. Hit thumb nail and flew out in the lake.

What species is that little snake?

Ringneck. Found in detritus on the ground. I was pulling weeds from the garden and he was in them. After the photo session, he went back in the flower bed.

A cute little critter. Thanks for returning him alive to the garden.

The only time I have ever killed snakes was when I had young children and found copperheads in the yard.
They have a valuable function and want nothing to do with us.
