Snake Alert!

A snake was here in my front garden.


It left a calling card.


It used the butterfly bush branches to help it shed its old skin.




With gloves on I carefully removed it from the butterfly bush but couldn't keep it from breaking in two.

Here it is laid out.  4 feet long at least.


The head.


I have no idea what kind it was or more importantly where it is now!

  2. Is that a water snake? I wonder if it lives in your pond. too big for my comfort.
