The snake and I had only a moment. I was walking along a trail and for some reason noticed this ‘stick’ among all the others.

This one was not all that big though it was hard to tell given the brush. A quick shot and we both moved on.
Still don’t know how I managed to spot him.
Ted, you were very brave to photograph this snake! Great shot!
Harmless snake, wanted to get away as fast as possible.
