Snake road 2010

Took a trip down to Snake road in southern IL. Man it was hot for late September! 92F most of the days. We found a good amount, and even if we wouldn't have, herping with my good friend Ben (TexasHerper) was a lot of fun!

Check out his video of the trip!

Great shots. And good example of how Cottonmouths will literally chase you down and bite you to death.

Beautiful photos at the end. 3:35 is probably my favorite shot out of the entire lot. The cotton mouth clips were awesome. :D Reminds me of a print that I bought of one in that exact same pose, with his head back and mouth wide open.
