I don't know how you manage to ...Boy, are you good! I don't know how you manage to turn up such good stuff, but I wish it'd rub off on me. <BR/>The last good snake I saw was in the early summer, when I checked out the local beaver pond -- ostensibly to see the critters who created it. Instead, I had only a muskrat (cruising around about a foot from my feet before it continued its business farther into the pond). And then I spotted the Bullfrog, hanging out on a little ledge created by the beaver lodge. And then, a few feet behind it to the right, I saw a very fat Northern Water Snake, curled up, keeping an eye on the frog. I observed for about 20 minutes (with time out for songbird watching), but no moves were made. My money was on the snake, though. <BR/><BR/>By the way, I always thought the Garter Snake was the cutest, but, having seen your Brown Snake pix, they get my vote for Most Likely to Star in a Disney Movie.Catbirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08817359455864023690noreply@blogger.com
