Yesterday evening, my watch cat put out an alert and look what I found on the patio. Ugh. Snakes don't have lots of friends around here. This was a copperhead.
I had purchased a couple of Anigozanthos (kangaroo paws) yesterday at the flea and had just set the pots out RIGHT THERE. Wondered if I bought him home but after thoroughly and carefully inspecting the plants and pots I decided not. I can't believe I hadn't seen him.
