Default Snake bite while weeding

Ohio apparently only has garter snakes.

I always pick one up on the scythe when doing the lawn near the
bushes. They're never hurt, and just wind up on top of the windrow
that lines up on the left, looking disoriented.

Maybe it's always the same one. He's been getting progressively
bigger. I don't know what he's feeding on.

The scythe serves as a nice transport device for putting him back
in the bushes. They don't mind it as much as being picked up.

I don't know why the scythe doesn't hurt him. It's razor sharp.
