This is a juvenile water moccasin. I was getting ready to push the shutter down when this may fly decided to take a rest. They both stayed put while I watched them.
What a stroke of luck there Rustin,, Nice to see the snake was not too interested in you ,Hope you are wearing boots out there in the brush good buddy...
very cool photo Rustin..isn't it always nice when the wildlife co-operates for a picture..I still have yet to see one of these snakes in person yet..Just a terrific shot!
