NOTHING is quite as startling as almost stepping on a large snake. This 4' black rat snake slithered out of its hole in the bank of the Chattahoochee River and moseyed along the water's edge for a while. But it wasn't the only slithery creature we've seen recently.
This smaller snake was about 18" long. We spotted it in the woods by a different stretch of the river.
Northern Water Snakes and Slider Turtles abounded at the school picnic, causing delight among the children and reactions ranging from mild interest to terror in parents.
But impressive though the larger creatures were, it was a tiny baby frog that really captured the children's attention.
