My husband and I were sitting outside on the patio yesterday when he saw a beautiful woodpecker land on a tree limb in our yard. I ran for my camera but by the time I returned and tried to get some pictures, he few away. My son was quicker than I to grab his camera and took this amazing photo. This is a Red Headed Woodpecker.
Not two hours later on our patio appeared this gorgeous Eastern Milk Snake. It only measured about 12 inches probably, but reared it's head and followed our every move. This time, I was lucky enough to get my camera in time. By the way, as threatening as he may look, this species of New York snake is harmless. He is seeking rodents and likes to eat other snakes. I must admit, however, if I had been alone I would have probably fainted if I saw this moving around.
