MASSASAUGA
(Rattlesnake): This morning Ron Pittaway and I were thrilled to see
this robust Massasauga rattlesnake near the shoreline of Georgian
Bay in Muskoka. Its rattles are clearly visible in the video and
last photo. For about an hour, we watched it soaking up the early
morning sunshine from a safe distance without alarming it, before it
slowly moved out of sight. We thank friends for telling
us where to see this impressive Massasauga. They believe it is the
same female that they've seen for several years at the same
location. One summer, they saw her with live-born young. 4
