Early this morning I looked our and saw a water snake climbing the pole of my bluebird house. He didn't make it.
Water snake caught threatening baby bluebirds
- Thread starter JimD
- Start date
My first several shots were from 25 yards away with him on the metal pole of the bird house. I could not see his head so I just shot him in the body until he dropped off the pole. Several solid hits. Then I walked out there and he was still alive but only moving the front third of his body. One to the head stopped that. If he had dropped into the lake I would have let the turtles take care of him but since he was in the yard I put him in a bag of trash and took him to the collection center. Grandkids are here now, don't need dead snakes in the yard. He was about 5 feet long.

Good deal ! A few weeks ago a red squirrel decided to start investigating our BB box . It wasn't a good career move.
