I saw a blacksnake eat a mole here once and they became my immediate friends. They often winter in the walls and ceiling of my garden shed. I walked by the shed one day and heard the sound of things falling off shelves. Two black snakes were hanging suspended from a wooden stake that hung out over a shelf and they were twisted together and procreating. Gardens need this kind of high drama as well! Bill Lee
