About a week ago, John took this picture in our backyard:
He had been seeing the snake (or snakes??) every morning & evening behind our retaining wall. After getting the above picture, I called a local snake removal service & talked with a tech who told me that they charge you the full amount even if they can't find or catch the snake. We weren't thrilled about paying that much money & still having a snake around, so we decided to look into other options. Of course, since then, we haven't seen any snakes around...thank goodness. The guy I talked to said it sounded like we had a black rat snake. He said they are shy & that our chipmunks were probably attracting them. I kept the tech's phone number, so if this thing shows up again, we may just have to give him a call!
