Snakes Alive

We went back to the Runge nature center in Jefferson City today to learn more about animals. Today the focus was snakes!! Yay! It was so fun! Paige and I got to touch the snakes while Neil stayed way back! Ha, ha!

Anyway, Paige seemed to like it as much as me...it was actually hard to keep her away from the snakes. She kept walking up to the box that the teacher kept them in and tried to open it!!! I may be creating a monster...nah, just an animal lover!!

Here are some pics of the reptiles we got to touch! ENJOY!!!

Here is Paige, walking up to the teacher (and the box of snakes) while she is teaching the kiddos about the senses of the snakes.

Here she is touching a Midland Brown Snake.
Here is a better pic to see what the snake looks like!

Here she is petting a Red Milk Snake.

Here she is petting a Speckled King Snake.

Paige also got to see a Rough Green Snake, but we didn't get any pictures of that one. It was a very active snake...not as calm as the rest we saw!
