Snake in the Grass


It's always a good idea to be observant when walking around our yard. All sorts of creatures are about and some can catch you off guard. Today, we observed this beautiful, sleek black snake winding it's way through the front lawn. We like their presence, as they keep the small rodent population in check and help to maintain a healthy ecosystem. We also have poisonous snakes, which are just as beneficial for their dietary preferences, but we have to maintain a safe distance when we come across the copperheads or rattlesnakes we see from time to time.
