I was on the way to my mailbox this afternoon when something caught my eye on the driveway. As I got closer, I saw what it was. A snake! Not exactly a big snake, but quite colo(u)rful - a nice shade of red. It wasn't moving at all other than it's tongue. I have no idea what species of snake it was, but I had to get a photo. But I'd left my phone inside. So rushed to the house, grabbed my phone, and rushed back. No snake to be seen at all. Almost like I'd imagined it. Gutted. No photo. It was probably a Northwestern Garter Snake - but would have been nice to have had a picture of it so I could confirm.
