I know spring has arrived when I see the first snake. This was a very large King snake that was sunning in the top branch of a rhododendron yesterday. It is nearly 6 feet long. He really caught me by surprise as I walked up the driveway.
King snakes are one of the few snakes that eat other snakes, even rattlesnakes as they are immune to their poison. The word King in the name denotes it eats other snakes as in King cobra.
Thanks for stopping by. Steem on!
