Watch OUT!!!

The warmer weather certainly brings out the SNAKES! Yesterday Stephen spent the afternoon fishing at Morses Creek in Bright. He hadn't been on the water long when he watched a very large and deadly brown snake emerge from the left bank, swim across the river just in front of him and then climb up the right bank. He was amazed by three things: 1) just how large the snake was, 2) how easily it climbed up the nearly vertical right bank and 3) how it didn't seem to be phased by him at all, taking its own sweet time to complete it's journey.

Now the picture is blurry. Stephen tells me that is because it was moving as he was trying to take the photo. Secretly I believe that it was because he was shaking so much as he watched it until it was well out of sight. Oh and he did manage to catch one nice fish in his travels.
