I have so many photos to process from this year that I'm wildly jumping from folder to folder to work on the cooler stuff. Here's a Tamaulipan Rock Rattlesnake (Crotalus morulus) from Nuevo León, Mexico a few weeks ago. Kicking off the pumpkin spice season.

There’s almost nothing but snake in the picture and it still looks like a pile of leaves or rocks. Perfect camo!

What a nice pile of leaves! So soft and ARGH!

That's an absolutely stunning specimen. I don't think I've seen that particular species before.
