HyNoon Report post Posted August 21 We have a really big gopher snake at our place. My daughter saw it today at about 630 pm and scared her at first until she realized what snake it was. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Saw some G&F WMs there and they told me they were Southwest Speckled Rattlesnakes, and they were known to be tree dwellers, feeding off of bird eggs. Here I was, looking under the trees for them the whole time. This one missing his head had been ran over by a water truck. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cohntr6 Report post Posted Sunday at 09:07 PM Went scouting last weekend and this guy made my heart skip a beat or two. Fortunately he gave me a heads up before I was too close. Very colorful yellow, I wish the pictures were better. I believe it was a blacktail rattler. Jeff VID_20250818_150628630~2.mp4 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
