Arizona Black Rattlesnake from a New Locale

It feels good being right about stuff, especially after some hard work. I had an idea about new locations to find Arizona Black Rattlesnakes, Crotalus cerberus, and got to work looking at maps. A few days later, here’s the result; a big rattlesnake laying in ambush near a waterhole. It’s a great feeling to see these in general, but it’s especially fun when they prove a theory.

He’s pretty cool looking, too.
