T-Bob Posted March 6, 2020 Posted March 6, 2020 (edited) Just found this lil fella wandering across my stoop and wondered what type it was. He obviously a juvenile but he was quite grumpy when being collected and had a couple of cracks at the glove I was wearing. Dark charcoal grey with a light grey to milky underbelly Edited March 6, 2020 by T-Bob
