Beautiful wreaths, welcoming guests to a home in Slidell, La. These pictures were sent yesterday by Hubby to warn me about the dangers of hanging wreaths in the country. I love a natural looking wreath since we live in the woods. More than once I've found the birds have made a nest or the squirrels have hidden acorns in the wreath. But never this...
Can you imagine the sheer terror that you would have if you had your arms full, ready to leave on errands and you happened to notice a snake had crawled up into your wreath???
Almost hidden, he blends so well...
I can't tell if this snake is dead or alive, I just know I wouldn't have survived the incident!!!
We would be pretty safe from snakes in our area....too cold!
ReplyDeleteBut if you used fruit, say apples, you might get a visit from a bear
Good gravy, Joycee! Now that is down right scary! I agree with Glenda, it's too cold here...I think!!!...:)JP
ReplyDeleteWow, now that does not fit into the twelve days of Christmas. As with the above comments, I'm Thankful that it is too cold here, I could imagine a bear paying a visit though.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh!!! It reminds me of the picture I saw of a Bob cat on a wood deck looing in the windows.....
ReplyDeleteYikes, I had to look a couple of times to actually see it was a snake! That would scare the bejeebers out of me!
ReplyDeleteApologies to anyone trying to view my post this morning, I went background shopping at Cutest Blog on the Block and got lost...I followed the breadcrumbs home though!
ReplyDeleteOh, I've just gotta send the link to your post to my son. It will FREAK him out!
ReplyDeleteSnakes~!~! I get them every February in my basement crawl space.. I will only pick them up with kitchen tongs...I have no snakes right now because I have mice..If I have no mice, I KNOW I have snakes.. Oh the rewards of living in the country and in a old farm house.
ReplyDeleteHOW bold of him to get on the wreath outside your door..What was he thinking..? was he nesting? Oh my ~!~! ta ta for now..from Iowa
My engineer husband would have sent me this too! Wreaths that attract snakes would definitely be a no no for us! That would scare me half to deah. Love your background -- I chose this too. Joni
ReplyDeleteMy gosh! NOT what I was expecting... I was thinking a squirrel or perhaps a bird's nest. Whoa, was this a surprise. I don't think I'd be able to use that door again!!!
