Green Snake

Had to rescue the wife from this deadly creature lol. She was moving a flower pot and he was under it. Took em over to the edge of the yard/woods and let em be on his way.

That snake is only deadly when your running away.

The last one of those I relocated had an attitude. I had never seen a green snake strike before.

This one was so calm I thought she had dropped the flower pot back down on his head. He didnt even try to get away.

Those are cool little critters. It's been many years since I've seen one. Good shots!

Cool little fellow! Thanks for sharing!

 

[Hoss]

They are cool. Fine capture.

 

[wvdawg]

You are a hero. Nice shots.

The last time I saw a green snake was when we were living in SC many years ago now. Once they were pretty common but it seems now they have declined like many other creatures over the years.

People are so funny sometimes. There was one in my bushes next to the road getting a little morning warm-up, when a neighbor couple spotted it. Of course the lady screamed as she and hubby backed away. He was calling animal control and looking for something to smack it with when I came running around the corner of the house.
I told them to back up that it was one of those rare deadly spring tail tree vipers (green are the most dangerous, ya know). Then I reached over picked her up and put in my shirt pocket. The lady was getting swoony and husband not far behind as they backed up when it popped it's head out and headed toward my neck. Told them to run, I'd take the hit for the neighborhood. Not seen them pass my yard in a long while - gotta have fun where you can when you live this close to Atlanta. (Hind thought, just glad neither had a gun!)
