This morning about 6:45 I was sleepily filling the bird feeders, until WHOA!  A rattlesnake under the north one, and he was BIG and he was RATTLING!  ANd he didn't seem to be planning on leaving anytime soon, so I went and got the .410 and shot him from the safety of distance.  But it shook me, as well it should.  That is the 4th one I personally have killed in the last 11 days.
I hope this doesn't go on much longer.  I should always be cautious, but lately I should be hyper-alert, and that is NO way to live my life.  I need to be calm and relaxed most of the time to ward off fibromyalgia pain and Crohn's Disease exacerbations.
