Is it me or are snakes one of those odd animals who have very specific diets for an appropriately sized creature? Though it could be the fact that I tend to classify predators under, "Their main prey is (insert factoid here).."

And they burned and they dug
And they killed all our cute little weeds...

Kill it with fire!  I have an agreement with the snakes; we try to stay out of each others' ways...

A snake to protect the plants, nice!

I have everything-envy!

Yay it's finally SPRING!
I can't help but think that snake is adorable! XD

We also have a new resident snake.  I rejoice.
