The Quiet Coil

The other evening as I enjoyed the gentle rain I noticed a quiet coil in the green space below. We’re on a slope so it’s a bit awkward trying to balance the telephoto while standing on the fence, this was the only picture that came out but I’ll take it as a reminder of the beauty that surrounds us. It’s so calming to watch a rattlesnake enjoying the rare bounty that falls from above, I’ve only had the opportunity once before.
