Mysterious Noise

IZA:  Because of the threatened severe weather this afternoon, I am postponing the Garden Tour.  However I have an earlier outside mini-adventure to show.

I was walking along the garden path thinking of where ta go lookin fer a mousie when I heard some noise among some thick patch of flowers.

I did a "look&listen" at the edge.  It sounded kinna large.  Well, I knew Marley an Ayla were inside.  And I could tell it wasnt hiding in place like a bunny.  Evil skwerls dont go into thick patches of flowers.

Then I had a troublesome thought.  What if its a SNAKE that didnt wanna be disturbed!

I think I will just move along elsewhere to someplace I can see into better...
