This big guy was waiting for me when I went to change the water filter.

When that tail rattles, believe me it is very scary till ya see where he is at!

Look at Tail

When coiled and ready to strike they are very intimadating!

Big D Back

This is the latest DB that almost got me. Was on knees fixing the water
drip for my grapes in the back yard. Caught a movement out of corner of my eye
and he was a circleing up to strike, all of about 18 inches right from my hand.
One shot to the head and number 12 bites the dust.
