It was the usual Diamondback. By the time I got up there, it had crawled into the neighbors’ yard and fallen asleep. It really wasn’t happy to be woken up! It was probably one of the most aggressive atrox I have ever encountered.
After being released he crawled to the base of a bush and calmed down pretty quickly for a picture.
