 Today was probably the last warm day we'll see in this area before the autumn really settles on us. There were many snakes in the forest...trying to find sunny spots.

This little one generously held still for a few minutes so I could get a few close-ups.

Great shot of the snake. Less of the foreground blur might have more impact.
