(The smaller, orange snake.) My mom texted me a photo of two snakes she found hanging out together while she was watering plants. ~3.5 hours later, they were still in the same area and I took some more photos. Sometimes the larger snake would move away a foot or two, and eventually the smaller one would slither over to it again. (There's another post for the other snake)

Wonderful weather today -- wish I could have spent more time outside... Alas, I've got a lot to do before the holiday break.
