I was backpacking on Saturday and saw a snake stretched across the trail. I believe it was a copperhead, based on the coloring and pattern. I watched from a safe distance as it slowly slithered off the trail and into the forest. I then continued walking.
Edit: I’ve been informed it was a milksnake, not a copperhead. Dull wildlife encounter achieved.
Smart. It’s a lot easier with the entire internet and plenty of time.
And hey, the venomous ones are just doin’ their thing too.
Absolutely! I’m very much an “observe nature doing its thing without interfering” type of person.
