Can you tell if it's a rattler or a gopher snake?

I don't want to hurt a gopher snake - but I can't see the eyes.
Will try to get a better shot ...


DADD-

Short Answer-

That's a rattlesnake.
UFB.... you're dangerous to yourself and others.
Can you not recognize the classic viper shape in an instant?
Don't get out much?

I guess it's better to be lucky than good?
Now what?
