Guest guest Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 Judy, That's a wonderful story about the bird and the snake--Thank you! What an image!! (Did you see the video of a rabbit chasing a snake that was making the rounds a while back?) It wasn't me that I had written about going back to school at 65, though. I remember reading those posts and thinking how cool they were, but I'm not sure which one of the many extremely cool list members they belonged to. Marilyn maybe? Hope you have a great weekend!

She was sitting on her deck reading and noticed a bird in the grass near some landscaping. You have to read this to believe it. Too funny " I saw a bird pecking at something, so I looked more closely and it was chasing a snake out of its territory near the bamboo! The bird would peck the snake's tail and the snake would slither a little, the bird would peck again and the snake would slither a little more, the bird would peck the snake's tail again and the snake would turn around and glare at the bird and the bird would act all innocent! This went on until the snake was out of the bird's territory! " > > Don't you find that hysterical.
