Garter snake

Yesterday, while biking with Gil, we saw a garter snake in New Berlin, just across the border from Hales Corners.

First one I have seen in the vicinity in 25 years of living in Hales Corners.

I was totally unprepared. If I had been carrying some kind of container, I would have poached it and released it unharmed into the garden.

Gil says there will be plenty of future opportunities, but one event in 25 years does not give me much confidence.

How would you like it if someone from New Berlin poached a snake out of your garden?
