Rattlesnake

Luckily this one was behind glass at the Denver Aquarium. I thought it would make a good post for the Camera Critters and Saturday's Critters memes.

Door Snake

Happy Halloween! Imagine my surprise the other day when I opened my front door to take the dogs for a walk and found this just outside.

And right below it was a buddy.

But they seemed rather friendly.

Friendly Garden Critter

When my little dog Socks and I were in our yard on Sunday we saw something interesting.

 He was friendly - he only hissed at me once!

Snakes are welcome in my yard as they eat voles and other annoying things. And they make for great  Camera Critters posts.

Snake

I took Socks out into the front yard yesterday, and he found this. He wasn't interested in it but I was. It was about 2 feet long.

Here's a similar picture, not quite as close but with the tongue out.
