    For a Minute I Thought.......

    That this was Ladybug (remember James?), but it was not. It is still a nice little snake Lampropeltis t. triangulum. It was under the solar heater when I took a look for garters. Has a baby toad (hope not garter) size lump in its belly.

    This is a new one MS#5. Have seen one (MS#4) that was about 20+ inches, did fine one huge MS shed so there are some big ones around. If I find any really big ones I would probably relocate them for the sake of the local garters.
