Spotted this guy sunning himself on the patio this morning:
And here’s Lebowski lounging in the sedum:
He didn’t even notice the snake,
and neither did the dogs.
It’s scary when I’m the most observant on a Monday morning.

I bet the cat and dogs noticed and wisely choose to ignore that monster snake …

You may be right, although my dogs are pretty oblivious.

Sunshine is good. Sunshine in a bed of sedum…the best!

Is that a bull snake? I didn’t even get out of bed until 10 this morning…I guess I was more tired than I realized 😉 ETA: of course, Neko was still asleep on my legs at 10, as well.

That’s so cool you could sleep in until 10! We should all do more of that.
I don’t think it’s a bull snake, although we’re having trouble identifying it. Zippy thinks it’s a Ribbon Snake. Either way, it’s a beauty.

Lebowski looks like happiness in a fur suit. Nothing like a good lounge in the sedums.

Happiness in a fur suit. Sounds like the start to a picture book…

Ha! Wily dogs and cat. NOT.
What kind of a snake is that?

They might be wily. Or they might be clueless. I’m not going to say.
We think it’s a Ribbon Snake, since the Garter Snakes usually have the orange stripes on the side rather than along the top. Either way, it’s harmless.

I assume that isn’t a poisonous snake or you’d be a lot more worried…

No poisonous snakes here, except rattlesnakes. Those we only see out in the open space. Zippy thinks this guy is a Ribbon Snake, but we’re not positive.
