Hi guys: I didn’t think you would miss me so much. Had to be away for a few days, and today was the start of trout season. Not too much exciting going on, but since you are easily entertained (as am I) . I did find a couple of things to upload. I have to apologize for the picture quality, but they have gotten a LOT faster since it warmed up. The little brown snake has been occupying a mouse hole outside, just in front of the sunroom wall, so I have to watch my step out there. I have not seen big green or the milksnake, so they may have left. It does appear that at least three of the smaller snakes are hanging around. I caught one napping in the sun catching a few rays, and they seem to like hanging out in a pile of garden hose (maybe they miss “big green”). The last photo is what I found in the corner. The shed (what is left of it) is 20 inches long. I was not sure that it was a garter skin at first because I didn’t see the ridges on the scales, but then I realized that was the inside (right?)! Duuuuh. I’ll try to keep finding interesting things to post.
