size or species?

Size. I knew what it was, and saw the other pics on FB but didn't expect it to be the same one.

I ran into a real good one (about 6 foot), the day I was after rattlers.    He had been laying in 80 degree rocks though so he wasn't too photogenic.   Plus its a little more complicated getting on eye level with them.   If someone would have seen me the other day theyd have thought I was nuts.   I was hovering over about 30 rattlers trying to get a good headshot of another.

There are medications for that you know  :chuckle:

Bone, what kind is that snake in the eye picture?

Love bullsnakes.  They will eat anything they can wrestle down.  Nice pics.
