[Tervuren]

Had an animal lie in my path on my way home. I very slowly edged closer and closer.

It just stayed there.

I had to stick my head out the window to reference it with my front tire, it finally decided to move off the road when under my bumper but not yet with the tire at it.

Beautiful young black rat snake, almost 4' long, not yet grown out to what they can reach around here.

I've had problems with small rodents lately; hopefully this lying little critter helps resolve that.
