Warm weather brings them out and this one was in the yard today. It really did not like being disturbed and I really did not like it being that close to the house. No, I didn't kill it but highly discouraged it from calling the yard home. Where are the hawks when you need them?

5+ Feet of a Not Happy Snake

Nice photo - what kind of snake is it?
ReplyDeleteBlack Rat Snake. Not poisonous but they will chase you if provoked.
ReplyDeleteYuk! as you may imagine, I am NOT fond of snakes. I think we had those in Pennsylvania (or one that is similar) but never saw one in Maine. Hope to never see one here either. :-)
ReplyDeleteThey too have a purpose! If they stay out of my yard, I like them much better but at least it is not poisonous. Most spring's never pass without seeing a Copperhead in the yard so I will take this one any day instead.
