This image was taken in the Texas panhandle. We found this hognose snake in the street near our home and stopped to move it out of the street where it was laying for warmth. Many people run over snakes and kill them before they see what kind it is. These are quite fun to play with as they play dead and roll over on their back with the tongue hanging out.
Western Hognose snakes are relatively small, stout-bodied snakes found throughout the Great Plains states of the U.S. from Canada to Mexico. Their color and pattern is highly variable from subspecies to subspecies, although most specimens appear much like the infamous rattlesnake to the untrained eye. This optical bluff, used in conjunction with a wide array of other clever defense tactics, makes these snakes quite unique among North American serpents.
Although there is still debate whether Heterodon is mildly venomous or nonvenemous with toxic saliva, it is generally agreed that the species is indeed venomous. Reg...
I have recently gotten into bird photography and really love taking their pictures. I also have a passion for clouds and the Texas landscape when the storms come rolling in. Lightning is a favorite subject during storms. I love macro photography and all the hidden detail in these amazing closeups. My arsenal consists of all Nikon cameras, flash units and Nikkor lenses. I have won monthly contests at Better Photo and I have also been published in Cowboy Magazine and Cowboys and Indians Magazine. PLEASE DO NOT PIN IMAGES TO PINTEREST.....THANK YOU

Thank you, Constance.

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.

Wayne Moran
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.
Barry Jones
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.
Lucinda Walter
