Sistrurus miliarius
Also known as the ground rattler, the snake is grey in color with black blotches all over its body, including the underside. There is a series of nearly circular black markings on the middle of the back, with a dotted brick-red to orange line running right down the center of the back, between each black blotch.
This rattler was coiled up beside the boardwalk in Hontoon Island State Park.
