Linear and sinusoidal

snake in woodpile
I moved my outdoor lumber pile, a stack of rectilinear objects. Ran into one that was sinusoidal. A very chill snake. His head was elsewhere in the pile. Without the visual input of the deconstructing biped he was in no hurry to leave.

Anaxyrus americanus americanus

I was fixing to clean up around the base of my sycamore tree, ran into this fellow. Postponed the cleanup.
When cold weather comes, these toads dig backwards and bury themselves in the dirt of their summer homes, or they may choose another site in which to hibernate.[6] Their diet includes crickets, mealworms, earthworms, ants, spiders, slugs, centipedes, moths, and other small invertebrates. Some of these toads have been known to live over 30 years and currently a female specimen (over 13 centimeters long) is living healthily into her late 30s.–Wikipedia
