This is a Mojave Green rattlesnake. A very nasty critter. They will actually chase you! And, they travel in pairs...so ya best run in the 'right' direction....
Tough decision on that one HGF - I hate snakes. I know I'll be bitten by midgies this year - and they bite me real hard and leave massive welts which take 2 weeks to go away - driving me crazy with itch the whole time. Maybe I'd have a better chance with snakes - even two of them! xx
I'm old enough to know better, and young enough not to care! 20th wedding anniv. around the corner, three kids and a gaggle of animals to keep me busy. Life's good!

Looks a bit dry out there.

it's always a bit disconcerting to be out and about...you just have to be aware.
dry, yes, bone dry :(
(have made the back garden sort of an oasis to compensate :))
er, don't know, will have to come over and see about the midges :)
