I was trucking along in Joshua Tree National Park a month or so ago with a couple friends, and we saw this little guy crossing the road. Can you see it? I didn't want to get too close, but it appears to be a young diamond back rattlesnake! He was probably about three feet long (no real reference in this shot). He sort of looked at us for a little while, and then slithered over to that rock that's behind him there, and curled up in the shade. We kept our distance and tried not to bother the little fellow, but we couldn't resist checking him out. Anyway, just thought I'd share. Oh, by the way, while we were out there we filmed me playing a couple tunes with my friends kick-ass Canon 5D camera. If/when I get around to doing a little editing/outputting, maybe it'll find it's way up here on The Melon Patch via You Tube or something. We'll see, we'll see...
