A brief trip to Colorado, squeezed in some local parks and birds...
A little Back story 🤣:
Went into an overgrown patch looking for birds.
Heard a sound. Thought, “That’s different.”
It was different. It was a rattlesnake. if not for Cedar waxwing little squeak... I might have been in other world!
I exited with all the grace of a wildlife photographer who suddenly remembered he is not part of the food chain. Later asked Grok how I would know if I got bit, and it more or less said, “Oh, you’ll know.”
Thankfully, the little fella only gave me a warning rattle and the Cedar waxwing distracted me.
And yes, it worked. I was rattled
