Itsy Bitsy Snake

If you look closely you'll see a small grass snake in the shape of the letter "J" in the middle of the above photo.  I didn't want to get any closer to take a picture. They are small harmless little snakes, but when I do yard work and one of these wiggles around me I jump and squeal like a young girl.  My reaction is uncontrollable.

My brother's dog, Cady, killed one last April in our back yard, but I feel guilty for using Cady to hunt those harmless little snakes just because they make me scream when they slither.
