My neighbor called a few minutes ago and asked if I wanted a snake. Well, no I said. I don't really need one. Then she explained there was one at her tractor and lawn mower shed and she couldn't get to them. I told her it would leave, that she could scare it away. Well that didn't go over to big.
So rather than it be killed I went over and caught it. As I was walking back home it occurred to me that this is Wednesday night. I live next door to a Baptist Church too. And yea, there are members in the parking lot. Deep South...... Hummmmmmm Snake handling service anyone?
I detoured the relocation though the house to LOML and got her to snap a couple of photos first. And no, she is not scared of them either.
Had to do a little searching but it's a immature Black Rat Snake. Anything that eats rats has a place in my field!! I turned him loose near my pond(mud hole) where there are lots of frogs right now. And quite a few rats around it too.
