Notes

We thought it was a stick in the road at first. But then I saw that it was in fact a Rosy Boa so I called it. My first Rosy! A very docile animal, not sure if it was because of the temps and the wind (30mph gusts and 20 mph sustained)or if it was just its nature.

I still can't believe how windy it was there. Crazy!
