Laaz, I enjoy seeing your healthy green plants after looking at weeks of snow cover. I'm not quite as certain about your little friend. What species is it? I'm not certain I've ever seen a tree dwelling snake in my area. I nearly stepped on a coiled Timber Rattler 40 years ago. That got my attention for the rest of that day's hike.

Lol! It's mid 70's here today. I think it's a rat snake, it had a bulge in it's belly so it must have just ate a lizard or mouse.

When they are green, they are very similar to Key lime.

Do you Pick Them Green or are you waiting the fruits to get ripen

Pick them green, they have better flavor. Once they turn yellow they lose flavor.
