Found Walking the wash at around 5:00 am
I noticed something hanging from a Larrea tridentata (creasote bush) and was able to identify it and snap some photos and shoot a quick video. Very Awesome and fast snake. It took off in a split second when I approached it.

Definitely a dream come true and the best moment of my herping career so far. I wasn’t the lucky one to find either of these amazing snakes but I was lucky enough to be there for it

Perhaps my favorite observation ever. I wasn’t even looking for snakes when I heard something rustling in the bushes. I went to investigate and was pleasantly surprised to see a kingsnake. I was about to grab it but I quickly realized it had just grabbed a rattlesnake by the head which was what made that rustling noise. I watched the entire event from beginning to end which took about an hour. I have video of it too for anyone interested

Lifer! Barely saw its tail disappear into the chaparral, then took about 5 minutes to track it down and catch it out of the bush. Got nipped a few times in the process. Last 4 pics are in situ
