Some Fun

The post about the squirrels reminded me of the photos my mom sent from Florida recently. These are "monkey squirrels" that live in the local country club. Well, at least that's what the locals call them. I haven't identified them yet, but according to some websites, (http://www.nc-mag.com/2011/05/ten-questions-florida-monkey-squirrels.html) fox squirrels are often called monkey squirrels. I've also got a couple of photos of lizards that Mom has come across around her house and a photo of Eddie saying hi, to keep it somewhat OT. ^_^

I see those near here every once in a while. They are Fox squirrels, and they get huge. First time I saw one I did think a monkey or a ringtail got away from some one.

Disclaimer: I do keep several snakes in pairs, and some in groups. However I realize that things can go wrong, and I have to keep a close eye on those groups, to be sure they are not being adversely affected by these living conditions. Also if one happens to eat it's cagemate, it is 100% my fault, and I know the risks in advance!

What's wrong with using CAUTION?!?!?!
