Remember, my friends, I told you that I met a snake in my garden? I was even glad then that she was alive.
Well. After a while, I met a snakeskin not far from the dung heap where the snake lives. The skin was left after the molt of the snake. So the snake is growing. I showed this skin to my mother and she even felt sick at the sight of it. She is very afraid of snakes.
The length of the hide was slightly less than 1 meter.
This week I saw that the snake crawls not one, but 2 of them. I told my family about it. I reminded my mother once again that snakes are not poisonous and that they themselves will not attack a person. Yes, they are just afraid of the person and crawl away.
Mom seems to have calmed down once again.
Yesterday at 6 o'clock in the morning, I took the garbage to the garbage heap and saw that the snakes were basking in the morning sun. And there were not one or 2, but as many as 5 pieces.
Maybe there are even more, but I managed to count 5.
I immediately went to get my camera. But when I came back, the tangle of small snakes was gone. Small snakes hid among the grass that lay in a nearby bunker. I could see their backs.
2 large snakes remained in their places. One was very big, probably the oldest of them all.
But the big snakes didn't want me to look at them, either. I tried to take a position to take a better picture of them, but in this case my shadow fell on them. They didn't like it.
And the little snakes must have been very curious to see me and crawled out of the grass. Cubs are always curious and less afraid of danger.
@sketch.and.jam referred to it as "the black rat snake".
