The above picture, as well as the one below, was taken by me in October of 2025. The green "thing" seen in the photos are part of a plant stand that got knocked over by heavy winds.

As I reported elsewhere, the pictures show a venomous Timber Rattlesnake, aka Crotalus horridus. It was one of three that I found on our property. I was amazed, finding one snake after another over a period of about 20 minutes. They weren't very big. Maybe mama had recently had babies. Snake sightings were frequent in October of 2025, and really all throughout the year. I hadn't seen that many snakes before. These snakes are also called canebrake rattlesnakes.
