Not many 10 year old girls can claim that I bet!KirstenJLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18224671473541898769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21247637.post-49029550680250143142011-09-24T07:26:38.574-04:002011-09-24T07:26:38.574-04:00Nic.

They lve eating toads- I encountered several just how you describe. Our snakes are haning out in our shrubs- about three feet off the ground. These same bushes are full of large Chinese prayiying Mantises that seem to be getting fewer and fewer each day!Tom Arbourhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01919759721690261620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21247637.post-38934628484600089332011-09-23T09:20:57.856-04:002011-09-23T09:20:57.856-04:00Two garter snakes have taken up residence in my ga...Two garter snakes have taken up residence in my garage. I don't know if they plan to stay for the winter, or if they just like being in a quiet, relatively secluded space. Recently, the snakes were accompanied by a toad. A few days ago, I came upon one of the snakes with the toad halfway down its throat.Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04443352705506509732noreply@blogger.com
