Personal Lifer (first C.L. Klauberi)

[D Grade]

Finally found one of my gems that have been dodging me for two years in SE Arizona yesterday. Crotalus Lepidus Klauberi /Banded Rock Rattlesnake. Just a juvenile, probably 10-12" long, absolute gorgeous one too.

Also found my third C.W. Willardi /Ridgenose Rattlesnake of the season about 20 minutes prior to the C.L. Klauberi . Sorry for the poor pictures, it was dark and trying to keep an eye on the snake while controlling camera and lighting is easier said than done.

Congrats on both of those! I need to get out that way this year and find some lifers of my own.

They are great finds, you will enjoy finding them.
