Dinner Guest (black rat snake)
So you and your family, are just sitting down outside to eat, when something under the table catches your eye
and you find a snake under the patio table. It's a Black Rat Snake.
Was really lucky to even get these two quick shots, as they whizz along, but because I had been doing a shoot earlier, all my stuff was by the back door, from when I had come in, you should of seen me scrabbling to put my zoom on, TBH I am amazed I got any pics

Ta
I'm okay around these guys, as they aren't venomous, so I could get close, some of other snakes we get in the garden, I admire from a distance
I wish I had zoomed out for one shot, so you could see all of him,maybe next time he pops round.
