01 On the Move

Madera Canyon, AZ

A Ringed-neck snake wandering through the grass. He is harmless to humans.
I was lucky - it is rarely seen during the day.

Lyrics: from "Man of Constant Sorrow", "Through this open world I'm a-bound to ramble"

Canon EOS 90D
1/500s f/8.0 at 300.0mm iso200 full exif

Conversely, and more probably, yellow and black are a standout as a danger signal, especially protecting the neck and head area. Best Wishes, Traveller

I’ve seen a few of these guys here in the metro area and plenty of them in the Ozarks. Naturally Ozark weather isn’t quite as burning hot as it is in the desert which would make me only want to come out after sundown too. Paul

What a great and mystifying nature shot....mystifying because the gold band around the neck is so very perfect, but then, what is its purpose? I suppose it is evolutionary...so they can recognize one another for mating...I guess. Otherwise, it is just sure pretty. Traveller
