Snake – Day 57 – A Year of Wildlife
I have never been bothered too much by snakes - unless they're poisonous. This one was being held by someone so it was easy to get up close. Maralee

California Quail – Day 55 – A Year of Wildlife
This is a male California Quail - a short-legged, plump bird with a comma-shaped crest. In the spring, the females will lay about 13-14 eggs and they are so much fun to watch when they are scurrying about.
