Who goes herping (especially in crot habitat) without a DSLR? 
Crots are meant to be shot close up.

Nice shots! I have gone out a few times without a camera, especially in real rocky areas looking for Crotalus Ruber. I didn't feel like dicking around with my camera while climbing through and over rock piles on the side of a hill.

Left my camera in the truck on a hike last yr and my buddy got a pic of a white Speckled Rattlesnake 4' off the ground in an ironwood tree. I believe the photo is in the current edition of Herp Nation magazine. |

They seem to be very adaptive to specific terrain based on location. Very fascinating. The one's I've found in the high desert near Barstow look different compared to those in the low desert around Joshua Tree NP. |

Got into a different canyon and didn't feel like carrying it anymore, had a 300mm f/4 on it. He got the pic, I got the snake. 
Lots of variation in mitchelli, the white ones are amazing. |

Excellent day for herping. Saw a few Copperheads, Black Rat Snakes, Box Turtles, and this fellow. No worries fellows, all were unharmed. Sorry about the photo quality but all I had was my phone. http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f392/Luvthemtorts/80449fb557c76692db8052220a24ac54_zps61640be7.jpg What a stunning example of Crotalus Horridus. |
