Goodness ... they certainly spend a lot of time doing this ... and most of the other visitors don't even notice! It is interesting that they are so gentle.  Also, the female didn't move at all the whole time I was observing! 

THANK YOU to Tobias Edwards and burnmoon1 for pointing out that I should not have said she didn't even blink because snakes never blink.  I have changed the description to indicate she did not move any part of her body, including her eyeballs, which do occasionally move!  :)
