Missy's critter

Er, Missy and Chappie found this little critter. 

In my lounge.

Behind the armchair.

At 2am. 

 Red-lipped Herald 








I was thrilled to identify my first snake without my trusty Grant to help me. 

Capturing it carefully (with an irate kitty trying to get her critter back again) and releasing it in the garden (with an inquisitive dog sniffing at my elbow) was nothing new to me. 

I'm linking to Saturday critters with Eileen, here

HAPPY SATURDAY TO YOU ALL!

  9. I hear you! I've often had to do catch and release. Once, it was a praying mantis who have sharp claws!!!
