The first snake encounter

I met our first snake, fortunately it was a bull snake and not a rattler, a common misconception is people say that bull snakes keep rattlesnakes away, in fact it’s just the competition for food. whereas bull snakes are eating the same food that rattlesnakes eat and are a little bit more opportunistic during the daytime and therefore cut down on the mouse population that both snakes count on for food. Nonetheless, I’m glad it was a bull snake and I just hope that it gets a little mouse snack and moves along.
