Cute little fella, soon as he spotted me he lifted up and stayed like that, motionless, looking at me as if I were rather sus!
And one more of him, eyeing my very suspiciously, lol

3 0 ReplySo cute! I've only seen snakes out and about a few times and it's always such a treat. I'd love to find a way to make my yard more hospitable for them, but I'm sadly surrounded on all sides with neighbors who spray their lawns and keep them all super short.
