Got it, thanks. All rattlesnakes and one coachwhip.
Not for nothing, but what is "proper" in a situation like this? If I look under the crawl space of my rat infested building and see 15 rattlesnakes, I'm not sure what my second reaction would be....

There are trained people for that exact scenario. Removal of the snakes, secure the area they are getting into, fix the rat problem.

They must have a great display since so many people confuse them with copperhead, despite no semblance of pattern.

People think everything is a copperhead. It's quite discouraging.

The cat didn't kill it. I caught it and released it into a field across from my house.

The kids saw this guy hiding under the bank of the creek near Hallettsville today. Yellow bellied water snake?

You got me... when I try zooming in it's too pixelated. Was it a solid color? Appears to have some pattern around the head.

That's all we could see of him. He went behind the waterfall.

Actually my first Gulf Marsh Snake. Knew that's what he was based on color/stripes and why I grabbed him. Other guys didn't appreciate the fact I was carrying a snake back to the boat...

Hoping to add some good photos this year since we recently moved to Phoenix metro. Will keep my eyes open on hikes and playing golf!

Hoping to find something other than brown and rough earth snakes this year... Seems like all I run into lately.

Snake related because it scared the hell outta my wife! She saw it move and didn't bother to look good enough to see it was a lizard...LOL! Texas Spiny Lizard correct? First one I've ever seen. Spring Branch, TX.

Yep... Good sized one. We always used to call them Rusty Joes and I have no idea where that colloquialism came from.

He was! I would guess the body length was a good 6-7 inches and seemed pretty fat! With all the rain, there is no shortage of insects.
