At my patio door, Etowah County, Alabama

In my garden, Etowah County, Alabama It was about five feet long. Didn't move until I prodded it with a twig. Then it vibrated its tail, coiled up and struck at me. When I backed off, it turned and slithered rapidly away. (IMG_4972)

The coloration of the snake in this photo is indistinct, but I believe it is a northern water snake. Calloway Gardens, Pine Mountain, Georgia. Scanned 35mm negative. (2S016)

This gray rat snake slithered into my family room tonight. I have no idea how it got in. Otis, my dog, went nuts and chased it under a desk in another room where it was cornered. It rattled its tail, hissed and struck out in a great imitation of a rattle snake. It was at least 5 feet long. Once I got Otis shut in another room, it took me awhile to figure out how to get it out of the house. I finally got it to crawl into a black cloth shopping bag, carried it out, and turned it loose outside, but not before I took a ton of pictures. Once I got it out on the patio, it calmed down, wasn't in a hurry to leave and let me take a lot more pictures, before I prodded it to leave. Etowah County, Alabama. (IMG_5878)

I was taking pictures of leaves in the water and not paying attention to the reflections which turned out to be amazing. It looks like a lot of pencil drawings scribbled by an artist. I have made notes of what I see. Feel free to add a note if you see anything else. I bracketed the shot and in between each shot the water shifted, so all three shots have unique reflections some of which are also in my photostream. Taken at the James D. Martin Wildife Park, Gadsden, Alabama - a wetland that is part of the Coosa River watershed. (IMG_9194)
