slithery things!!!!

EEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!! I was standing at my kitchen window yesterday and noticed a bird flying to the ground and back up again. I thought, "someone is trying to get a lizard lunch and is a lousy hunter." Upon closer inspection I thought it was the biggest lizard I had seen (in the wild) and it was not a lizard at all. It was a ssssnnnnnake! A long, ugly, white snake! EEEWWW!!! I thought birds were the prey of snakes but perhaps it had gotten a baby bird or something. I know I would of taken on an enemy that tried to get one of my babies! I am not really afraid of snakes I just think they are ugly. I decided to let my curiosity get the best of me so I wandered out to the wooded area to have a looksee and thought that maybe it had gone up a tree so I was looking up and decided that if that thing or any of its relatives crossed my feet someone would definitely be pulling a white sheet up over this old gal but I didn't see anything so I came back to the house. I had just been telling Daniel last week that I wanted to clear that area and put a table or something in there but .....NAH!
