About an hour ago I heard the dog barking and the wife scream outside in the pool area.
Although I had no idea what kind of snake he was at the moment, a quick look and I knew he wasn't venomous and there was no rush to remove him. So off I went to grab the camera.
This is my first Hognose I have ever seen in the wild. The hissing and show he put on was amazing and quit intimidating.
After I was finished shooting and a little coaxing trying to grab him he rolled over and played dead with his mouth wide open and a partially digested lizard hanging out of his mouth. The wife though I killed him. Even after trying to roll him back over he continued to lay back over with his belly up and mouth wide open.
Hope you enjoy! I know I did.
