yep.. I guess I echo'd you in my last post.. The little ones don't mess around,
and they can be nasty.. Their size might give some a false sense of security..
If it's poisonous, I don't want it around me, even if it's 6 inches long..
I have to watch for those up at my place in the country.. I wear snake protectors
when I'm mowing, prowling the woods, etc.. Also carry a lead spitting device in
case one decides he wants to make my day.
I have to watch for both copperheads and rattlers.. They have water moccasins
down at the lake, but I'm far enough from the water, I usually don't expect them
too much. Possible though I guess, if one came up one of the creeks, and then
slithered across the land.. But it's the first two I watch for the most..
Always real careful where I put my hands, when picking up logs, tree branches, etc..
Or even walking across a tree that is down.. Lots of places those critters can hang
out. They will reach out and touch you if they think you are intruding on their
territory, and they can't retreat anywhere.
