Mister Rattler Poses For a Picture At Moraga's Rancho Laguna Park

A couple of local park users and naturalists ran into a rattlesnake on the volleyball court at Rancho Laguna Park Saturday.

Look at that camouflage. Ma Nature built this critter with some stealthy natural defenses, that's for sure, not to mention that little early warning system affixed to his tail.

Best not to mess with Mr. Rattler.

Phil Henningsen was down at Rancho Laguna Park Saturday and saw this guy stretched out on the volleyball court.

"People still need to be aware of the elements down at Rancho Laguna park," Phil wrote, and his admonition and Lou Schuler's photo drive home the woodsman's admonition: "Look before you step."

Thanks, folks!
