Sunday's walk in the woods. In the end of July grass snakes (non poisonous) gather in crowds. I don't know whether it is mating or just "social networking". Better to ask Steemit Snake-Master - 
This is snake shelter or snakehouse - a pyramid from logs, divided by straw and dry grass with old palettes on the top.
It seems there is some hierarchy - small snakes are below and upper part occupy great patriarchs and matriarchs - I don't know who is bigger
I'have heard from locals that in areas populated by grass snakes poisonous snakes do not survive.
An interesting observation - this world's divided into two kinds of people... the snake lovers and the snake haters. I often see both reactions. I'm definitely from the first category.
On the low levels of the pyramid store is located - snakes keep here their used skins.
The concequences of June hurricanes - fallen trees are everywhere
