Adventures, wildlife, and life in the Alpujarras

Look what I found in the swimming pool!

Found this little chap in the swimming pool on Monday, luckily for him a big plastic bag had blown in so he wasn't completely submerged. I fished him out, put him in a rocky area in the sun so he could dry out, warm up and slither off, which he did. Turns out he is a Horseshoe Whipsnake, non venenmous, just a fast mover and a good mouser, which is a good job as the dogs and cat are pretty useless at the job around here.
