My wife had never seen strutting before last weekend. It was nice to see her excited.

We see a lot of them. Laying eggs anywhere they can.

My son spotted this little guy in the yard.


The wife ran around locking all the doors, she wouldn't even listen to me when I told her snakes don't have the required thumbs to turn the knob.

Good on you Jaybird for teaching your young-uns about snakes, way too many folks only teach kids to be fearful or kill them.

Seen this fella slide outta our wooded area, cross a gravel drive and make his way into our neighbor's cow pasture.
The cows had been rotated out a few days prior and we watched him go from one cow patty to the other in search of his next meal.
His marking were very light (molting?) but I believe it's a King Snake and a welcomed addition to our new homestead.

Glad too see someone who recognizes how good snakes are to have around.
