Notes
A very relaxed snake. Never attempted to strike until well after he was off the road. When he saw me walk up he just turned around and went back to the road side. When I was trying to take photos of him on the road side I noticed why he was upset. He was guarding his beer. (see the 2nd photo)
3rd pic is of the DOR yearling atrox I found at 931pm the same night
