I usually don’t describe snakes as beautiful, but he/she truly is! Maybe it has something to do with the fact that it’s not slithering across my driveway…
Looks like you had a fun adventure! 🙂 Sure was a nice day for it.
How cool! I’ve never been there — in fact, I’ve never been to ANY of the off-island wonders. One of these trips I need to do some exploring!
@Mare, better your driveway than mine! ;p
@Tootie, it’s really a nice, easy walk – especially at this time of year. And the place was crawling with volunteers who are only too happy to show you stuff and loan their field glasses & etc.
@Gail, I think my next adventure will be to go down to the Corkscrew Swamp near Naples and do the trails there.
