Here’s another diamondback from Eddy county – common of course but there are obvious physical differences between them and those that I find around Phoenix. They tend to be darker, higher contrast, and larger. Ya, a very common snake, but I’m happy to see every one that I do and will always photograph them, to the dismay of whatever herper is with me.
