Snake! II

Okay.

This is the adorable, furry kid... who's smart and affectionate and adventurous. See the excavations? Should have called him Digger. Nahhh. He's a Floyd. Fershure.


This is the unwanted visitor I found last night under the pergola, frightening the furry kid. Red bellied black snake, juvenile. (Phewwww. Why do they stink so much?)

I really don't mind snakes. Just as long as they're not at my place, particularly near my dogs.

Just for clarification, snakes are protected.

This snake committed suicide by throwing him/herself under the blunt blade of the spade I was holding.

Floyd just jumped inside and look at the snake which, in the dark, looked a lot like duct tape... black and shiny on the back and silvery white underneath, inthe dark.
