As the weather warms up here in Arizona, the snakes start to come out. :) We were paid a visit from a bull snake yesterday. It's great to have them around the property... this one was/is close to 4ft in length.

It went from the side yard...sticks and brush to the patio... and then on its way.

Thanks for looking.

4-ft?! That's one way to keep the rodents away :D

Beautiful shots there

Nice shoots of a great snake. All homes in their range should be sold with an included Bull.
