A long time ago on this blog, TSG featured a photo of a
"creepy crawly" that we encountered on the Monument Peak Trail in Ed Levin County Park. This week's offering could be considered a sequel of sorts, as these images were taken less than 500 feet from where we photographed the eight-legged freak several years ago. Had you, dear reader, been there this last Sunday morning, you might have overheard a conversation something like this...
Crotalus viridis: "BZZZZZZZTTT!!!!! Hey! You! Stay the fuck away from me!"
Shouting Grasshopper: "Yes, yes, but can I please take your picture?"
Reptile paparazzi--yep, that's what we do for kicks. Thank god for telephoto lenses, even if they are only 3X! Oh, and please excuse the slightly (?) out-of-focus nature of these shots; there might have been a bit of camera shake involved.
