Watch Where You Step
I met this snake yesterday on a path at the nature reserve in Jordbro. It's a venomous viper and they often enjoy the sunshine here. Same path, last year. Bigger snake.
The snake has some pretty colors on its face. I don't much like snakes but tolerate them.
ReplyDeleteI use to see Black Snakes in Virginia, but around here it is Rattle Snakes.
ReplyDeleteHow close did you get?
ReplyDeleteI was crouching a few meters away and took a few quick snaps, I then decided to move in more closely but that scared it away.
