I used to have two cats that would go out and tease these and bull snakes when they used to be able to go out in Colorado. I always got calls from neighbors fearing they had cornered a rattler. I can understand their concern, but I wish they checked further. What a great capture and composition.

Karen Slagle replied:

Thank you Bunny, the only snakes we kill are rattlers if they are in our yard.

eeeeeekkkk wow do I have stories of rattlers up in the mountains of California.

Karen Slagle replied:

Bet you do Wayne...This is a Hognose but looks like a rattler.

Great shot. I was reading somewhere that the hognose has fangs and venom, but the fangs are turned in such away they cannot inject with a strike. They inject after the prey is captured. Do not know if that is correct or not, but thought it was interesting... v/f

Karen Slagle replied:

I do believe you are correct, Barry. I read the same thing...Glad you like it.
