Rattler at WPZ--what kind?

Iriri Aug 22, 2007 03:08 PM

I took this photo at the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle. I am hoping that someone can tell me what kind of rattler it is so I can label my photos

That is a Eastern Diamondback, Crotalus adamanteus.

He was a great photographic subject. And I'm not too good with my rattler ids
