... was a warm day, temperature in the low 90's - very warm for early Spring around here... while cruising up on the ridge we came across this yellow phase Timber Rattlesnake...
... watch your step!... doesn't need much cover...
... pretty good size - about 3ft with some girth... he was lying just off to the side of the trail - buzzed the vehicle as we drove by (believe it or not) - they're ultra-sensitive to ground vibrations (which is a good thing - they'll usually give ya' a step or two warning before accidentally planting a foot on them) - would never had been aware of him otherwise...
