Was out yesterday at a local park and walked by this log protruding out over the water. Kinda caught my eye since the end of it looked rather deformed but I was distracted in trying to capture a shot of a bird in a nearby bush so I kept walking.
On the way back, I looked a little closer at the "deformed log"...
...hello.
Unfortunately, that was the best shot I got before he got scared and made a hasty exit. Even this shot is a pretty big crop out of the middle of the picture.
Saw a really cool lizard, too, that faded from blue on the tail to reddish or orange on his head. He was way too skittish to grab a picture of, though.

I f'n hate those things. We have several venomous snakes around here. Cottonmouths, rattlesnakes, coral snakes and copperheads are the ones that come to mind.
