    Default snake in the backyard

    We had a snake in the backyard this morning.  I noticed it when DH went to work.  I phoned him and he said: "yeah, it's been there for 2 days. I forgot to put it in the rubbish bin."  Pfffffft.  I might have to fire that man.    Anyhow, It looks like a small green tree snake and I think my bad cat, Hettie Wainthrope might have killed it.

    Your sweetie is slowly trying to torment you Rhonda.
    Have a snake in my flower bed, the other day it had a poor little toad in it's mouth. It slowly dissapeared.

    I hate snakes. I am glad the cat took care of it because I would be running in the opposite direction.

    Yikes! I hate 'em too. I try to make a deal with them, they stay out of my yard and my way and I won't get the gun or the hoe and send them on to snakey heaven.
