A young Arizona Black Rattlesnake resting outside its den, where several larger adults have yet to emerge for the day. In time, it will darken and its pattern will fade to be the familiar dark black with yellow bands common in the region.

- No access lower than how high the largest rattlesnakes in the area can go = no adult rattlesnakes are getting in here.

A male Western Diamondback Rattlesnake cruising through dense vegetation, on the lookout for males that may be near. At this higher elevation den in the late fall, the females are already tucked into rock crevices and caves.

A young Blacktailed Rattlesnake from the eastern end of Arizona. While not as sharply contrasted as the population from just south in the Sky Islands, I personally like the clean, subtle tones and velvety appearance of these snakes in this area.

A glance out the back door caught a surprise visitor on the patio. This Western Diamondback Rattlesnake was likely disturbed by nearby construction, which had just deleted the habitat that it was using to hibernate.

A Western Diamondback Rattlesnake was seen in the bushes near the front patio of a unit at an assisted living community. The complex is surrounded on all sides by native habitat, and we are called to visit several times each year.

A Mojave Rattlesnake found hanging out in the yard near Casa Grande. The snake may have just been passing through (this was in early October), but it's that time of year when they were looking for dens ... so maybe not.

A homeowner saw a young rattlesnake in the yard and hoped it would move on, but gave us a call after about 45 minutes. Jeff got there and the snake had disappeared, but he saw it near its original location and was able to safely capture it.

A small Western Diamondback Rattlesnake was seen hiding in the garage, where it likely intended to spend the winter. It disappeared but Apryl was able to find it nearby, under a shoe rack, and safely capture it. She took it to season-appropriate microhabitat for it to continue its life.

Just barely visible in the first photo, this Western Diamondback Rattlesnake got itself well situated in a hesperaloe by the time CJ arrived to get it. There is a lot of great habitat all around, but all private property and inaccessible.

The previous night, one of the dogs at this house came back with a swollen nose. Then, the others' neck started to swell, and off to the vet they went. We got a call to try and find the snake in the yard, and Marissa found a baby Western Diamondback Rattlesnake hiding out in some unused roof tiles.

This ambitious little sausage was found on a playground at a school. It had apparently found something big to eat ... so big it could barely move to cover from where it was found. Marissa was very careful to move it without causing it to lose its big prize.

A Mojave Rattlesnake from the grasslands of southeastern Arizona. This species in the area can be highly variable in appearance, from muted green tones to deeply contrasting browns and blacks, each can look very different from the next.
