The struggle of life and death is on display in my back yard…
As I’m strolling in my back yard having a smoke, I hear a rustle at my feet and I glance down to see a snake (hopefully of the relatively harmless ‘garden’ variety lol) having a toad/frog for lunch.
I’m pretty sure I stepped on the snake… it slithered quite quickly under the deck as I screamed like a little girl and soiled myself (just a little bit). While the snake looks like it bit off more than it can chew (ugh… sorry), the toad appears wholly unimpressed by the situation.
It’s all over now; The snake won. I’m amazed that the little snake, it’s head no bigger around than my pinkie finger, was able to swallow that (relatively) big of a toad.
