A snake fell out of the sky and landed on a woman mowing her yard.
The bizarre incident didn’t stop there. Peggy Jones was then attacked by a hawk.
Jones was on her tractor mowing at her home in Silsbee, near Beaumont on Tuesday afternoon. She describes how suddenly a snake fell on her, wrapping around her arm.
“The snake was squeezing so hard, and I was waving my arms in the air. And then, this hawk was swooping down clawing at my arm over and over,” explains Peggy Jones. “I just kept saying, ‘Help me, Jesus, Help me, Jesus.’’

I’m too busy judging her husband. LOL! In this heat, SHE is the one out mowing on the tractor, battling both snakes and hawks. However, at least he responded to her cries of “Help me, Jesus”! Jesus sent her husband, who wasn’t sure whether to bring a gun, a knife, a net, or all three!

Oh.My.God.
First, I would vow to never mow the yard again.
Next, I would crawl into bed, and think about starting the day over.

The woman was clearly stealing the snake the hawk misplaced.

Once upon a time, I was in the front yard when my wife came around the coner on her lawn tractor screaming that snakes were falling from the sky. Turn out she made a very tight pass around the base of a tree in the back yard which frightened a black rat snake out of the tree.
By the time I got in the back yard the snake was gone.

Jesus sent her husband, who wasn’t sure whether to bring a gun, a knife, a net, or all three! My first thought was Jesus sent the hawk to rescue her from the snake.

We have a family of Falcons in our neighborhood that has old growth trees. They really have eyes bigger than their maximum load, because several of us have had mangled but still struggling squirrels dropped in our yards. Eventually the falcon lands and sections it out in pieces that are a more reasonable weight to gain altitude with.

Was at a stop light once when a hawk with a squirrel in its talons flew by me at eye level.
