Please consider adding this spotting to the Snakes of the Southwest Mission! http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/12491282
that's a really awesome picture...I'm a bit too afraid of snakes around here I'd have taken off by then. Anyways you should add it to the reptiles of Arizona mission http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/12136645
Wow! Was that a strike? He doesn't look very happy! Very cool shot though!
