Re: The Nature Photography Thread
Here's a few more. I had a ton of pictures in the camera, and I've just managed to find time to download them all into the computer, so you'll see them popping up in threads all over for a couple days!

Re: The Nature Photography Thread
I like the skipper picture. I had one land on me the other day to drink some water after it rained. <3

Re: The Nature Photography Thread
The baby rattler was inches from our legs (on some exposed gnarled roots) before we noticed it. This was rattler #3 of 2007 which we almost discovered the wrong way. Their camouflage and their often "I am not moving... nor rattling" behavior offers perfect snakebite possibilities. Great! Especially when you are 14 miles from the trailhead with no phone capabilities.
It's like you're looking for these guys, because it's a herp backpacking trip.... but you don't want to find them by sensing a couple pinpricks in the back of your calves either! Steve P.S. Hope to find more this year. Hee! hee! (never learns)
