So...did this little fella stow away in my bag?
The morning after I arrived back to my bucolic country cottage in freezing wet Somerset, from Mexico...i fould this little fella slithering across my sitting room floor. Stow-away or seasonally-confused local? The rescue centre assures me that it is a fledgling grass snake from round these ‘ere parts. One of a nest of 30. Located really nearby. Phew! So reassuring to know...😬🐍✨
Wait, that is a local snake from the UK? That is more snake than I have ever seen in Costa Rica. And there are tons of snakes here.
