my first snake of the season

[steve-o]

i had cut the ditch line on this yard and no problems. i went back to trim and i noticed this thing laying there that won't there b/4. now i can't see as good as i used to but i did know this guy was a snake. now me, i don't kill them. in fact if i can catch them i will bring them home and put them in the woods if it is a neighborhood where there are alot of kids. BUT...... this ole boy was too big for me to play crockerdile hunter. anyway he looked at me and i looked at him and then he went on his merry way. he wasn't poisenous, is that spelled right?

I ran into a few in the yard this last week, just garden snakes but they creep me out all the same.Im glad they keep the rodents down just dont like the close encounters.

I almost had to go back home to clean my shorts from the snake I saw yesterday. I was trimmimg around the a screened pool area and whats going across my boot.. I 4' long black snake.. Now usually Ill smack him with my trimmer, But this time it about scared the shizit out of me. It took me a few to calm down from the scare.

why kill him ? you are bigger than he is. let him go .
