Nah, but she prolly got a strong whiff of something! I walked right up on that joker, too. I've seen so many of them over the years, and each time I see them, they still give me the creeps. I've had them hiss at me too, and brother, that'll raise the hair on your neck!Could you smell it?
Thanks, bud. I have seen more venomous snakes this year, especially cottonmouths, than I have in a long time. I even see them laying all over the main roads when ridding the woods.Great shot of the little rascal.
Thanks, bud. I took the video and pic with my iPad Pro. So I had to kneel down closer than I'd like to get the shots. I was out of striking range, though. I'm not going to be that stupid and get too close.Nice shot,,,,
One time me and my best friend went to his daddy's lake and turned over my 17' canoe and he stepped right on a 3' cottonmouth as thick as my arm...……….we both screamed and he came right back down on top of the snake...……….luckily we didn't get bit. After we calmed down I asked him why he came right back down on the snake...………………….he said " because I cannot fly"...…….
