AOR - a humongous timber rattlesnake and my 4th one ever, found entering the road as a storm front moved through (no rain though). Had a large meal in its lower abdomen, so it moved very slowly and did not exhibit any defensive behaviors (occasionally tongue-flicked and did not rattle its broken rattle)

Here's a challenging one for you. The suggestions on this one are hilarious. Crappy pictures asides, Laurie Vitt dug this animal out of a log..or maybe it was under a log. What's the correct term for this look? Amelanistic?

First picture shows bands extending into ventral scales, ruling out Nerodia erythrogaster, plus the orangish colors of the bands makes this sipedon

AOR - the first emoryi I’ve seen alive in this area. Simply would not sit still for photos, pretty cold to the touch and was very reluctant to bite until it got into the grass, then started rattling tail and struck out once from defensive posture
