Tim, not only are these photos fascinating (so close to The Drama Queen), your commentary is hilarious. Favorite pic is the full blown drama with sand in her mouth. ~ Mia
Thanks, Mia. If you look at the back of her mouth on the right side of the photo with the sand on her tongue, you can see one of her fangs tucked in the back of her mouth. Hognose snakes are rear-fanged, very mildly venomous (considered harmless to humans).
You’re welcome Tim, you’re braver than I would ever be around snakes. She is beautiful and was a good sport, you captured some great photos of her, one fang and all.

I would’ve given her such a wide berth! Great shots but….snake!
She would have a appreciated you as a non-peski paparazza. Thanks, Teri!
I might have done one shot from a distance 😉
I didn’t know snakes played possum. 😊
She has such striking markings…a real beauty.
Not many do, but hognose are famous for playing possum. Thanks, Cathy.
