User's notes
took my dog to the water for drink and saw what i thought was a discarded bike tyre but suddenly thought its a snake. Stepped away from water and tossed a pebble and snake flinched. taken on ipad on the max magnification possible. classic location for black snakes sitting quietly alongside water. this particlar pond usually full of frogs
