In Greek mythology, the Lernaean Hydra was a terrifying serpent like beast that possessed many heads. It would attack herds of cattle and local villagers, totally terrorizing the land.
One of its heads could never be harmed by any weapon, and if any of the other heads were severed another would grow in its place.
It sounds very scary.
I was relieved to hear that it was eventually killed by Heracles as the second of his Twelve Labours.
Well done Heracles!
I do like a good myth.
However, you can imagine my surprise when I found the remains of the terrifying serpent like beast in my neighborhood!
Someone must have dug it up, not knowing what it was and although it is long dead it still looks very scary.
Hmm, I do hope it is dead.
Bassa, did you have enough sleep last night! ha hsa
Would you sleep after seeing that? 🙂
Good grief, my night is now filled with Medusa like hydras…er tree trunks!
haha thats funny i love greek mythology, but that does look like a hydra in a way
Wow, that is some petrified hydra!
I certainly hope you pee’d on that evil thing Bassa
Wow! It does look like the Hydra! I do think you could handle it though Bassa for you are so big and so brave!!!
God Bless You and Happy Easter our friend!
the collies and chuck 🙂
Reminds me a bit of this goddess lady with snakes on her head instead of hair. 😮
Sure looks dead. Maybe it comes alive when it rains?
Bassa, you might want to bury that thing again.
