Dad has a tabby cat that visits him at work. He hunts the squirrels around the office and torments the birds like you would expect from a tomcat. And in the case of this picture, he was messing with a snake. Dad came back from lunch to see the cat getting something, and some large birds swooping around in the same space. Dad really thought the cat had found a baby bird, but when he looked closer Dad could see the coiled up snake. Dad really thought that the cat had killed the snake, but when the cat got bored with the snake and started rolling around in the parking lot, Dad saw the snake start to raise its head. That's when Dad decided the snake needed to go somewhere else. Dad found a long (long) stick and used it to toss the snake into the neighboring yard (there's a chain link fence, and the snake slithered through). The cat quickly hopped up and followed it. That's where the story ended for Dad ... snake away from his parking lot and his patients.
Don't look any further if you don't like snakes, but here's a close-up of the snake.
Ugh ... snakes! Another reason to be an inside cat.

Wow! Look at that big snake!
My human LOVES snakes - back in elementary school she could have told you just what type of snake that was, but now she's forgotten most of that info.
Wow, that's one big snake. We don't think we would like snakes much.
