Garden Monster

Chorleywood is renowned for its wild life and our garden plays host to badgers, foxes, and squirrels whilst the odd muntjac deer passes through and our loft space has been home for glis-glis However a week ago the Monster came and entrapped itself in out anti-Heron pond netting. Three or more feet in muscular length it was writhing ominously, and when I approached, it hissed. By this time my family were having hysterics as I cut it loose. Just time to use the mobile as a camera and then quick as a flash it took off across the grass and vanished into the shrubbery. What was this mysterious monster…Twas a frog and fish loving grass snake!
