She is one of two calves Isabelle is raising-the other being her daughter Iris, from last week’s #cowednesday.

Happy December! Flurries have been in the air this Happy December!

This young Northern Brown Snake was sunning itself This young Northern Brown Snake was sunning itself on the cow lane on the last warm day in November. Brown Snakes are common, but rarely-seen, small snakes (adults reach 13-16 inches) who feed on slugs, earthworms, insects, and small fish. As cold-blooded animals, snakes seek the warmth of the sun (especially in autumn) to keep their body temperature high enough (>60F) to be able to stay active and to search for a good shelter to “brumate” (the cold-blooded equivalent of “hibernate”). Unfortunately, roads seem to offer ideal sites for sun-bathing snakes and many are killed by cars on warm autumn days 🐍 #farmscapeecology ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ --------------------------------------------------- We invite you to follow our “Farmscape Wonder Wanders” on the Progress of the Seasons Blog or on Facebook, linked in bio.
