Florida Cottonmouth [Agkistrodon piscivorus conanti] Juvenile

    This colorful juvenile (about 14 inches in length) was discovered beneath low vegetation in the roadside swale near Turnbull Creek along State Road 16 in western St. Johns County, Florida during a terrestrial snail survey on 7/2/2011. The little guy was more than happy to pose for the camera before being liberated into the creek.
