They Climb Trees!!!
 

My wife and I were out at my farm in Colorado County filling bird feeders when my wife says very calmly, "There's a snake in that tree." :shock: He was directly above me about 4 feet up on a limb. 4 1/2 to 5 foot with 12 Rattles and a button. It is the biggest Timber Rattler I have ever seen and being the law abiding steward of wildlife that I am he still lives BUT I'll dang sure be lookin around when I climb into my ladder stands this fall :roll:

Be Careful in the trees

Holy s*&#@ now there hidding in the trees. That would make you hurt yourself climbing in a tree stand. :shock: :shock: :shock:

They're out to get you Ronny. Gotta watch 'em. :)

BTW, thought of you as I blew through Cumby Sunday. For about 7 - 8 seconds anyway. Then I was thinking about why Tinman wouldn't answer his cell phone. :lol: ...must have caller ID. :oops:

Those are some good pics. Just adds to why we need to be always alert while outdoors. ;)

If i saw that i would be like one of those flying squirrels! :D

I HATE SNAKES!!!! :shock: :shock: :shock:

Cool pics Jack. Good to see you again.

:shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: I'm shocked!!!



Carrie said it "very calmly"! She's come a long way!!

Those are way cool pics! I bet you are glad that you are not taller! :)

I really would hate to get struck in the face :shock:

Just the thought of it. :shock: :shock: :shock:

Wow. Neat pictures.

My hat's off to you on the ecology/conservation front. I tend to draw the line at non poisonous snakes. Those I let go, that guy I would have introduced to blunt trauma at the end of a long stick.

It probably would have been a race to the ground for me and the snake. All the kicking, scratching and thrashing around would have killed at least one of us! :shock:

Biggun, you got the squirrel part down! :D

Thats funny right there Linedawg :lol: :lol: :lol:

You may hafta install some pvc sleeves on the legs of that tripod to keep em down offa there.

Can I hunt out of my truck? Y'all make me nervous... :lol:

Nasty,,,
 

I had the pleasure of hauling butt down a dirt road with Trailboss on a girl's hunt. He about ran over a rattlesnack, he backed up, got out and eventually clobbered it to death with a durn rock. I wish I had had a video camera with me. Was the funniest thing, I almost laughed myself out of the jeep!
