Rattle Snake

I went out this afternoon to check my bird feeders as I usually do. While at the feeders I heard kind of a buzzing noise. "Cicada" thought I. As I pivoted around a movement on the ground caught my eye. This guy was 6" from my leg, coiled and pulling his head back in the strike position (of course he had a head at the time).
I took a few steps toward the house, calmly put down the bird feeders I was holding, called my dog who was out with me and then ran into the house screaming "RATTLESNAKE!" at which time my brave hunter Hubby came out and blew the head off of the Serpent.
Note to self: Wear boots when you go out.
