Spent 5 - 6 hours working on the i550 I am selling and then decided to chill out thru rush hour in a kayak instead of a traffic jam. Weird little water snake kept stalking me though. I don't know much about water snakes and I'm not sure if anyone does. I'm sure there's a herpetologist somewhere who knows a helluva lot more than I do, which is: nothing. But if I were a snake, I'd sure as heck want to live on the warm land rather than the cold water.
Anyway, this one kept following me along the small rock jetty out closer to the mouth of the creek. Curiousity? Hunger? Disgust? I have no idea what motivates a water snake.
I do know they bite hard.
