It took me a moment to realize that it wasn't a branch at all, but a giant bark-colored snake. I jumped out very quickly and honestly if the sling hadn't been so expensive, I would have abandoned it. Fortunately, Lorna's family owned a pet shop when she grew up and she had no fear of reptiles so she got the sling back down.
After a couple of "snake" nighmares last night I went online to figure out what I'd seen. Just a Texas rat snake. Huge, but non-venomous. And very, very creepy.

LOL. Oh, my gosh, Cathy - I would have screamed and not stopped screaming for ages. WOW. And to think I was spooked by the two-foot snake I almost stepped on while I was out walking Saturday! Eeek. Very glad for you that it was non-dangerous snake, and that you were able to get your sling back! I'm not sure how you recover from an experience like that, but I hope you do! :) Tree yoga sounds fun - when it's snakeless.
