Thanks, Steve --
Certainly seems so from my PEterson's field guide to western Reptiles, too (always got to double check Wiki's)

Such a beauty

Welcome to the twenty first century where an ISO 10,000 photo might
look "a
little rough in the shadows".

yeah, a dramatic image, and your tale encourages me to use higher ISO more

this is a case where that little bit of noise actually makes a nice
contrast with the foreground subject, makes it look less sterile than it
might with a "clean" background; i think i see some sharpening and
suspect some noise reduction may have occurred (perhaps automatically);
i wonder whether this image was particularly well suited to the
mechanics of those effects

i'm no herpetologist, but i'm going to guess ring-necked snake
