#1 I haven't seen any in my yard, but lots of bunnies this year (and hawks looking for a good meal). But then I don't live near the river.

#6 I live in the next suburb north of Naperville. To top it off large wetlands abut my property. I haven't seen a single snake! Not one! I have seen coywolfs, coyotes, foxes, all sorts of birds and insects. Oh, and we seem to have a huge population increase of crickets, toads and skeeters - but snakes? Nada.

#7 We got snakes, all four main varieties of venomous and every other kind that matter except large constrictors. For high comedy drop a live indigo snake in front of a healthy cat. Have someone with a camera and make sure it's not zoomed in. I had one cat that jumped 5 feet in the air ran into the house (to look for a hoe?) Then came back out and went all Riki Tiki Travi, I had to save the snake.

#9 Had a Tom cat one time that I saw running around with a snake in its mouth. It seemed to like the new chew toy. Cats are natural born killers.

#10 I had an Inland Taipan in my garage/ pumpkin patch at Kenmore Park. Did not pick a lot of pumpkins that year.
