Well, not quite, but barely! See the pile of black timber rattlesnakes? That’s what I saw too.
What I didn’t see was the big yellow-phase timber right where I just about put my hand! Yikes. I saw him just before it was too late.
Yes, that would have hurt.
And, here’s a closer shot of the black timbers, minus 2 that disappeared before I could get a shot.
