RE: HOORAY - THE FIRST SNAKE OF THE YEAR!!!

in #nature7 years ago

Yes, the snakes are staring to come out! My wife and I were recently at a resort and while walking back in the the back from the big, well manicured lawn we walked up on a large coach whip hunting in the grass just feet off the cemented side walk. I stood and watched while it hunted. After a few minutes of it hunting and us getting used to each other it found its prey. It was a rather large frog that it grabbed up and slid away with across the grass and back into the bushes. I grew up around snakes but my wife not so much so for her it was a scary thing at first but as she stood and watched it turned into a really beautiful experience for her. She started out freaked out as she thought I was too close :) to the action but ended up lookin' like a National Geographic photographer with her phone. It was pretty kool. Maybe I'll upload that vid and do a post sometime. Anyways, I enjoyed your post Papa!
