Photos taken last week across the field on the main loop road. Enjoy!

I found two timber rattlers in Cades Cove yesterday close to the loop road. This was the only one that was in decent light. I was not as close as it appears. Taken from an extremely safe distance with a long lens and cropped in. The snake was not disturbed for the photo! Enjoy!
