Lions and Tigers and...Snakes?

This is a snake that I saw while I was talking through the woods here.

I was walking along, minding my own business when I heard something hiss at me. I looked over in the direction of the sound and saw this creature about six feet away from me. It was hissing up a storm and fake-rattling its tail. I told it to be a nice snake and not bite me as I took its picture.

It's a harmless rat snake, but they like to be rather...intense. Haha.

  1. This looks pretty scary to me. But then I come from a country that has no snakes. Not one :)
