A neighbor was mowing the grass and yelled so I went to check it out.
We let it finish. I was surprised the snake did not abandon it and take off.
Then we found a snake caught in some netting with a meal stuck in it's belly.
It was really dehydrated and not moving much at all. I cut it loose and gave it some water which it drank really fast. After a while it recovered and it's escape response was really good so I let it go.

Re: What A day
That first one is a beauty! Poor froggy. That one in the netting sure got himself into a predicament! No doubt it would have died. Good save.
