A Clutch O' Cruz...

...born less than an hour ago.

I stepped out of the house and went down to the local Metroparks to do some Water Snake photography today.
When I came home I saw this (Poppa Cruz is on top of the rock with one of his offspring. Momma Cruz is below with another baby):








A photo of the entire clutch:


And yeah, I found some Water Snakes at the Metroparks:
