Timber Rattlesnake - the first I have ever seen. I was driving on Mountain Road in Albany Township when I was surprised to see a snake on the road. I thought it was roadkill, but I stopped to photograph it anyway since snakes are not something I get much chance to see. The quality of the images is not what I would like, but my interest in lingering in close proximity was lessened when a passing bicyclist stopped and said, "That's a rattlesnake, isn't it?" I decided he was right and that the critter did not appear injured, just content - for the moment - to lie still on the pavement. That's when I left.
