Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the water...
Had the dogs out for a walk along a lake trail a few days back. The weather was quite nice and this snake was sunning it's self on the warm rocks beside the lake. Soon as it saw the dogs it was in the water and swam out far enough where my dogs wouldn't chase it.
Smart snake, I had no idea they could swim so well!
That's just gross. I hate snakes.
ReplyDeleteSorry Randy, didn't mean to gross you out... I'm not real good with spiders so I know how you feel!
Deletewhat a beauty. yup, we get 'em zipping around the pond all summer. killed a copperhead on the deck just this morning. *sigh*
ReplyDeleteNice close up of his head!!
ReplyDeleteThey swim great. They have a hard time outrunning the 22 around here though. I'm with Randy, I hate snakes!
