Timber Rattler on Rocks

Compton, Arkansas

Timber rattler. This beautiful specimen as photographed in the wilderness behind our home. Timber rattlers are docile, but will strike if seriously provoked. They are headed for the endangered species list because people fear rattlers. I followed this big girl around for over an hour and only got her to get in the strike pose when I provoked her, and even then she did not strike. #12287
