Notes
Just prior to some rain. I was looking at what appeared to be cover objects on a my map, and came up to what ended up being a metal access panel to some piping (I'm guessing that's the purpose...). When I scraped the dead grass litter from the surface, this coral snake appeared in the midst of it.
