Yeah, but when you live out among the wildlife, you find yourself compelled to have a hand in events, no matter how much you would rather not. Obviously I like snakes, but it's just something heartbreaking about seeing parent birds fluttering around all distressed and finding a snake coiled up in their nest with it's belly filled with the eggs or babies. Yeah, I KNOW it's just nature, but dang it, when the birds start building nests HERE around our house, it feels like they are OUR birds. We're not feeding the birds just to fatten them up for something to eat. The snakes can go eat someone else's birds.
Matter of fact Connie found a baby racer hanging out by the garage. Right near where "her" baby fence lizards are hanging out. So I've got another snake in a bag to run on out to the forest. We can't allow him to eat OUR lizards, now can we?
