Snakes Alive!

September 10, 2009 · 0 comments

No, mercifully, for I am not too keen on snakes, this one was dead.
The fact that it was a banded snake I found intriguing if not a mite scary.
Was it a Coral Snake or a harmless Milk Snake ?
I knew there was a rhyme re. the sequence of the colours in the banding but couldn’t remember the sequence.
In any case, if the snake were active, all rhyme and reason would desert me.
Snake seen on verge corner Lincoln/Maxey Road. You know the plan was to mow the lawn this morning but I’ve been distracted.
Yours, Monica Berry (Maxey Rd. Deeping Gate)
