This morning as I was feeding the horses, this little rat snake would not let me into the feed room until I knew the password :D He really was such a cute snake and posed a long time for me... and tasted the lense a few times with his tongue as well (something I don't recommend you let a rattler do:wink)

Oh, hello there!

Sure, I can look cute. Is this cute enough for you?

Honestly, I do think this is my better side...

    Excellent captures. If the snake was licking the lens you were too close. :eek1

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Thanks for the comments. I was VERY close. In fact, I was petting him a bit too ;) I don't mind snakes... and I know my poisonous ones around here (we have quite a few).

    I would love to get a pic of a corn snake... they are beautiful!
