Thanks for stopping by! The snakes frequently crawl over the cameras, and even though the footage will out of focus they are one of my favorite captures.
I love hiking out in the central CT woods and up on the traprock ridges. Your videos simultaneously fascinate and scare the bejesus out of me, afraid of what my next step or glance may uncover. Come do a video on the timber rattlers of Meshomasic State Forest in CT.
I suspect your fascination would win out! Just using a bit of common sense while hiking in rattlesnake country (i.e., watching where you place your hands, not stepping over logs and rocks if you can't see the other side first) your hiking experience will be safe and enjoyable!
what an amazing video i hope 1 day i might see one in the bluehills in Massachusetts but its 1 in a million chance anyways i hope to see more videos of timber rattlesnakes its my favorite snake next to copperheads 👍
Thank you! Ironically this is an older cam that I don't think is available anymore. More specifically, trail cam models change names constantly...it is can be very confusing. This cam, I recently purchased and i highly recommend www.amazon.com/dp/B0B58X5BCP?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1
Yes, I watched it again today, just love your videos, looking forward to more. That poor guy out in 50 deg weather, shows just how little we really know about those snakes that live in temperate climates. Your videos are not just entertaining, but dive into scientific research. I mean these are Rattlesnake dens, very few people have ever seen one, much less filmed them. I know of two here in VA, but they are secret. I have not been up there in a while, getting on in age, but I am sure they are still there. C.Horridus is a protected species now, so no messing about, or possessing them.
Thanks again Frank! I love creating as much as trying in my own way to educate the general public about the ecological significance of this misunderstood animal.

Thanks Mark and thanks for showing ng me the sector world of the timber rattle snake.
I feel so fortunate that such technology allows us to uncover many secrets of the natural world.
Thank you for such wonderful footage. Love the scutes moving across the camera lens.

I am humbled..thank you Chuck
Thats so awesome and peaceful.
From footage like yours we'll learn about the secrets of winter rattlesnakes.

Absolutely incredible work Mark! I really am at a loss of words, as this is the best footage I've seen! Nice work!!!
Thank you! I was pleased with what the cameras captured. I hope we both can generate some interesting footage for 2024!

Same here...along with eastern hognose!
This is excellent, informative work! Looks like you must have a very good trail cam. May I ask: What cam do you use?

Strange I've always seen camelback crickets at Timber dens also.
At the very least they seem to have an affinity for horridus dens and something an entomologist might be interested in looking into.
