Last Post Rated "Ick"

Ok so maybe many of you agree with Trek and think the snake is icky??? But we like the snakes in the field next to us. In 20 years we've only had 2 mice get into the house, both dispatched quickly by one of the cats. The snakes and hawks have taken care of the rest before they ever get close to our place. So which is ickier? Snakes and raptors silently doing their job? Or field mice sneaking in to the house?

I like hawks! And I like mice - though not in the house.

I like mice too, but just not in the house. I love hawks!! I spotted a new ferruginous hawk hunting in the field about 4/10 of a mile from our house. He was working the same 10x10 ft section, must have had something spotted. By new I mean I had seen one hunting in this spot before.

I think I would put my vote towards just liking critters outdoors. Though I do have a soft spot for bunny rabbits.

I love snakes, they are so graceful and elegant. That little guy in the picture must have been enjoying the shade, or the heat of the concrete.. Maybe he needs a snake sock??? to keep him at the right temperature.

Na, snakes are cool. I just love the feel of their skin, and how it always looks like little gems. Mice are ok, but not in the house. Had enough of that for a life time and a half.
