Small Snakes

Jude seems to always be finding interesting things in her garden. Four-toed salamanders. Hibernating toads. Oil-can beetles. Snakes. Lots of snakes. Under the boards she lays down for mulch. Milk snakes, garter snakes and ring-necked snakes. The milk snakes are often large and have a rather nasty temperament. The garters are medium sized and move quickly into the grass when uncovered. The ring-necked snakes she found last week were small and plentiful.

How small? This small:

Great itty snake pic!

Hey, I'm home sick, watching videos from the library, and seeing Henry Czerny on "The Tudors". You look much like him, facial expressions and all. Kind of weird. Is he your long lost twin?
