Great images and some very cool snakes.

I was out birding today and stepped 2 feet from a very large timber rattlesnake and it scared me out of my skin. Typical of the species, it just slithered away as I got back into my skin.

Wonderful shots! That shot of the cottonmouth with its white mouth gaping is really cool.
