About Me
- Sunny
- I was born in my grandmother's old mill house in Cornwall, England and came to the USA with my parents in 1958. My Dad was in the RAF and as a child I lived in many different locations in England and even the Rock of Gibraltar.
Massachusetts has always been home in the US except for a brief period when I resided in Idaho, giving me a chance to explore the Great American West.
For nearly 30 years I lived on Cape Cod before my husband and I moved back to the mountains* of Massachusetts with our Goldendoodle Lucy, and our cats, Lilly and Molly. I am also the mother of a grown son.
*Some of you would call them hills but they're mountains to me!
THANKS SO MUCH-PLEASE ENJOY!

Very brave indeed Sunny. I think I like snakes but then we don't have anyting more dangerous than an adder in Britain. I enlarged your shot and saw his beady eye watching you. It's a miracle you didn't step on him, hidden in the leaves so well.
Egads! Heh... that would be a miracle for you and me! Great picture but you are very very brave indeed!!
And got over being startled enough to get this reasonably crisp image.
I spy a snakes eye staring straight at me. I'm not a big fan of snakes but this guy is quite handsome.
Nice to see he was not harmed in the shooting, Sunny ;)
still laughing as I type. you were very brave and he is a really pretty snakes. i don't mind snakes that are non posionous. this one is not poisinous and has great markings. congrats on your miracle.
I hope you had a good zoom lens for this one! I really don't mind snakes; we have no poisonous ones here, so we grew up being comfortable with picking them up and making pets of them - til mom found out of course.
I love this guy, though. I think he liked having his picture taken - he appears to be smiling!!!
He was certainly eyeing you, Sunny!
Funny--Sunny.... I probably would NOT have stayed long enough to take a picture. ha ha
Hugs,
Betsy
It actually looks rather sweet and friendly. Perhaps it's that devious smile.
Oh, I understand that miracle. It's still a great shot though.
It would take more than a miracle for me to take the shot. You were very brave.
I hear you!
Great shot!
Cute! Not only did you stay around for the picture, you stayed around for a great picture.
A brilliant photo, but you're much braver than me!!! I really don't think I would have been able to use my camera!!! LOL
You WERE brave, Sunny. The snake looks lovely but ...
I once had a big, beautifully marked, escaped pet in my garden, research revealed that it was an American snake, although I didn't actually hear an accent ... grins. Anyway it stayed for three days, sunbathing at the back of a small shed. All the kids in the neighbourhood came to see it, but I forgot to charge entrance fee. Tut tut!
you're probably right,... excellent picture.
Great photo Sunny, he is a beauty. Common Garter snakes are always welcome in my yard.
I have these guys sunning themselves in the bushes or on my patio. I have so many that I don't regret mower accidents as there are more to replace them
You were a brave, brave woman! He certainly is bright green! Is he just a garter snake?
I'm very impressed! Not sure I could have done it...the last time I saw a snake was at the Museum of Science when I was in grade school.
It was an enourmous King Cobra or something, and they made us sit in a long row and hold him. I was petrified.
