Magic Mushrooms

Sorry, I've been such a lazy blogger recently :( I'll make it up to you now! Another post from the last weekend coming right up!

So we spent 2 lovely days in the cottage again. It was fun to pack our kids and the cat and all the stuff to our really small car (Suzuki Swift) :) We used all the space there is. It was the very first car trip for Vera. We didn't dare to let her outside. Because she's not afraid of outer space, street cat as she is. But she enjoyed staying indoors catching flies (there are no flies in the city) very much.

Our summer neighbour ordered some cow "leftovers" form a local farmer as an organic boost for her flowers and vegetables. But he brought them obviously too much! So now I'm helping her to get rid of it as much as I can. So I went to get some for my phloxes and I saw these weird mushrooms inside this huge poo mountain. Next I accidently hit one with my shovel. And a baby snake came out of it! Luckily it was a grass snake (not poisonous) again. Most of the eggs shells were empty already. So as I kept digging, I collected 12 little ones all together to a bucket. Plus 3 eggs. One of the eggs was a bit opened and a baby was ready to be born, so Noora got to be a snake doula :D She loved it! Tuudur was a bit jealous saying he'd like a snake of his own :) I didn't realise before my kids are such a hippies! I'm so happy they take care of smaller creatures and are not afraid of the nature we have here.

P.S. I'm sorry if you find these pics disturbing. I bet I would too if I didn't have a live experience :)
