Frogs and snake

It was a beautiful day outside as we sat on the deck watching the squirrels play in the trees in the forest behind Simon and Leigh's house. The birds were singing, the branches of the trees were swinging in the gentle breeze, so although it was quite humid it was also quite pleasant as we chatted amongst each other.

Then we saw it, a small grass snake was attacking one of our pond frogs and had one of its legs in his open jaw. Simon and I ran down to where they were, took some pictures and then proceeded to shake the snake with a small stick until it released the frog. The frog immediately jumped into the pond and the snake wriggled back into the forest.

So, feeling quite pleased with ourselves, we did what all men would do after having a great battle to save our frog, we decided to have a quick drink before going to bed. As you can see we threw our empty cans or bottles in the outside bin.

A satisfying day after all !!!!!!
