Give me a hint where the snake is in the photo. Gil


Sorry Gil, just now checking back in, but Woody found him for you. I think that is a Western Diamondback, but I'm not really knowledgeable on TX snakes. He sure did get my attention that morning. I would buy some snake protection if I saw many like him.
