Pygmy Rattlesnakes

[Rudyjohn]

We have seen several pygmy's at the Shark's Tooth golf course. Even saw one exiting a crack in the wall of the clubhouse. Nature is all around us--sometimes just too much around.

When I read things like this, it makes me glad I'm not living down south anymore! :shock:

Last year, about this time, JDarg and BDarg were ready to pick up a Pygmy Rattler, which was crawling up through a deck on a house. Well, maybe the picking up part is a little bit of an exaggeration, but they had their faces right over the snake, investigating it. When I told them what it was, they took a step back.

I am deathly terrified of snakes, hate them all (sorry) but I keep returning to this thread. I guess I'm a glutton for punishment.

When I was growing up in S. Ala., we had woods all around our property so we had our share of rattlesnakes (I always managed to "rake" across one while I was raking) and also moccasins in the river where we skied. We even went to the Rattlesnake Rodeo in Opp some years. (very nightmarish)

But PLEASE tell me that there are no snakes ON the beach! I just never thought there would be snakes slithering along the beautiful white, pristine sand!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There are no snakes on the beach, right????

(I'm gonna have nightmares tonight.)

Beach Mice = Snakes nearby ...

ohhhh noooo. But I don't really know what a beach mouse is.
I know snakes always hang out (literally) in the citrus trees. yuck.

The black racer snakes are out everywhere right now- I see them every time I am driving! Why are they always crossing the road? Busy snakes they are!!!

 

[Rudyjohn]

I hate snakes. And they do always seem to be crossing the roads. yuck.
