So, it’s finally spring here in the Finger Lakes. Our yard is greening up, dandelions are blooming, bugs are emerging. You get the idea.
And our friend, Snakie-snakey is here and doing its thing — mostly sunning up against the house. We are hopeful that it is also eating slugs and bugs and all those good things that we want gone. Suri, the corgi, has a history of being a mighty snake hunter. I’ve told her that I don’t want Snakie-snakey’s remains on the back step, but she requires active supervision to keep our little friend safe.
And yesterday, Snakie-snakey shed a layer of skin, so they are getting bigger. Here is a photo of Snakie-snakey up next to the house, right next to the old skin.

Mostly I don’t scream when we meet. Only when there is a slither right next to my feet. . . .
