I know of folks who almost lost their feet and hands because of these little venomous creatures---I would hate to be bitten by one--but I've come close to rattlesnakes in woods--TOO CLOSE FOR COMFORT--YIKES!!!!

Artist Reply: Yeah, I don't want to get really close to either one. I'll just take the shots & run...

Artist Reply: Yeah, there was a time when I wouldn't have gotten within 10 feet of him; now I'm trying to get closer. Go figure..... Thanks for stopping by!

Artist Reply: Thanks; glad you like it! I live in the country so I see way more of these than I'd like to!

OMG, I have heard these can be found in Nebraska and since we moved to a house with a basement, I am always terrified Joey will get bit by one. I've been wanting to know what one looks like to educate myself, even though I'm highly arachnophobic! Thanks for this, couldn't have asked for a clearer shot *shiver*!

Artist Reply: Yeah, I'm never happy to find one but they seem to like it here! Thanks for comments & glad to help you out on their appearance!
