Photo that I took from southeastern Arizona. A very beautiful snake! I love the prominent white streaks below the eye.

Only a few more rattlesnake species to go…

I am getting closer to accomplishing my goal of finding every rattlesnake species in the United States. I have spent a bunch of time in southeastern Arizona, New Mexico and Texas so I have found pretty much every species there. I still need to find an eastern diamondback, a speckled rattlesnake, a red diamond rattlesnake, an Arizona black rattlesnake and a tiger rattler. Hopefully next year I will find those five species.
