'Nature at Your Door' teams up with MD and DE Herping! Satellite imagery is used to identify accessible and ideal snake habitats in the Valley and Ridge Applachian Mountains of Eastern West Virginia. Tony Ferrazzo (MD and DE Herping checked out satelite imagery on Google Maps to pick a spot half way between our homes! Within minutes of arrival I find a Timber Rattlesnake (Crotalus horridus) a few feet from a rock I just flipped. I heard it before I saw it! Thanks to the tell-tale ratte! Notice that the snake was not striking at us, not acting agressively and warned us continuously with its rattle. After a couple minutes for some photos and videos we part our ways.
