Rattlesnakes and more rattlesnakes!

Photos taken from 2002 to the end of 2009

Mohave rattlesnake
Mohave rattlesnake
This rattler was bathing in the sunset
Coiling once it perceived a threat
With some cover the rattler calmed down
This rattler was very upset
Moving in for a rattler close-up
Calmed a bit yet rattling like mad.
Rattler warming in the morning sun
Rattler content to gain more warmth
One large veteran of a rattlesnake
Closed in to lighten up the photo
Rattler had nestled in the rocks
Closer view from the direction we came
Rattler blended into the rocks well
Rattler bathing in the afternoon sun
Straight on shot of the rattler
Not concerned enough to rattle
Head-on close-up of rattler
Lost part of his rattle
Looks like he's digesting a meal
Stretching out onto the trail
Rattler close-up

Now that's a rattler up close & personal!
Still no rattle or movement
One last shot before I biked away
Another rattlesnake in Usery Park
This rattler was shy enough to flee.

Another rattlesnake at Usery
Rattlesnake on the Wind Cave Trail
Nice coil!
Another rattler encounterd biking at Usery
One last look before fleeing
Rattler in the brush
Rattler was on the trail but hid quickly
Last shot of this rattler
Well camouflaged rattlesnake
Rattler moved into brush when we stopped
Last photo before we moved on
Rattler in the night at Usery
Rattler on the Noso Trail
Rattler on the Wind Cave Trail
Rattler in the night
Rattler coiling up
Rattler shot closer

Farewell to the rattler for tonight
Ok, what's left of a rattler anyway
