Rattlesnakes

This is the time of the year when rattlesnakes are most active. I have killed two in the last two mornings while driving ranch roads. The snake pictured above is swallowing a morning dove. Even in the short grass you would have to be alert to see it. With the dry conditions and mostly dry grass which we have now they are even more difficult to spot. So, if you are out and about slow down and watch where you step.
