I have been standing at the large window just thinking of buying granular fertilizer for me to use in March for all my clematis, iris, salvias, coneflowers, butterfly bushes and daylilys and everything is brown ..the temp is 59 here today, blue skies and sunshine.
Just saw this snake so cold on the concrete so I went out and picked it up and placed in the grass in the sun..In several minutes it began to notice me and to move..
I wanted to share my pictures of it today with you , I think it is a black runner snake not sure but it is not a rattlesnake or moccasin to my knowledge..so I let it live.
They are beautiful to watch and I kept the cats away from this young snake. we have gotten down to ll degrees one night and down to the 20 and 30s but somehow the snakes are out at times
here in the south and I would never venture to walk the woods in winter now as I used to as a child..and crawl down in the ravines and ditches and lie there an look up at the blue skies some days
as a child.
