Both good things, Donna. We have black snakes that live in the ceiling of our 
garden shed, sometimes creating wonderful sights, such as watching them 
slither vertically up the inside corner of the shed to get back to the ceiling, or 
writhing, all twisted around each other, suspended from the ceiling lighting 
fixture in their annual mating.

I watched one kill and eat a mole one day. The snakes are indispensable in 
the garden.
