Awesome ratsnake SurlyBDR. Well, it was a very active day out in the Katy Prairie.  I figured it would be a good day to go with all the rain that we had, but wasn't expecting all the flooding.  I

I thought I was going to find a bunch of cool snakes today.  Only saw two ribbon snakes.  However, one was being eaten by a hawk, so that is pretty cool.  Not the best or sharpest shots, but still coo

My question is once you get it in the bag then what?  That mesh isn't so think that it can't strike through it so you've got to what roll a blanket or some other thick covering to protect the people but that thing is 17' long, it's got to be heavy, not to mention awkward to lift as it's you know constantly moving too.

“On Monday, local TV news station KHOU reported a copperhead sighting near a bayou in Cinco Ranch.”

Lol. Hold up, a snake was seen near a bayou and someone reported it to khou and they deemed it newsworthy? Because it’s February? Houston is about as close to tropical as a place can get without being designated as such. Snakes are always active here.

I was biking one time and I came across a dead rattler on the road. Huge mother, but deader than fried chicken. It had been run over, flattened in two places, guts all smashed out its asshole. I stop and pull out my pocket knife, thinking I would cut off the rattler. I pick it up and the fucking thing strikes at me. Scared the living shits out of me. .
