No, not a politician or lawyer.

I distracted it and my wife got a closeup picture.

Bullsnake

I never kept a Bullsnake growing up and the big ones have bad attitudes.

Bull snakes or Gopher snakes are welcome around our farms.

She took a cool pic. Small one or big one?

My wife freaks over snakes in general.

We been at our place for over 40 years and yesterday I saw my first puff adder ever. Crossing the driveway he put on a good show when I got close, then resorted to rolling over, puking up three frogs and playing dead. In a few minutes he was back in the jungle...borders the "yard".

This used to be blue racer central and black snakes too, but now we seldom see them.

Same here. Where you see bull snakes here, you don't see rattle snakes.

Nice photography here... Interesting, too. But I wonder how many other than myself figured it was gonna be something political.

LOL... I have most often heard Hognose snakes called either Puff Adder or Puff Viper by my fellow Ozark hillbillies. Especially older folks. We have Eastern Hognose here and if you use that to name the snake the hillbillies think you're getting mighty uppity. About the same for the Eastern Collared Lizard that are found on the rocky glades of the Ozarks. Old timers call them "Glade Bitches!" The Eastern Collared Lizard when scared will stand on its hind legs and run upright. It is an eye opener to the uninitiated hiking city folks that have never had a Glade Bitch run at them before. : )


Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.
