My cat, Ashi, was up to something that made me curious and I saw it right away. In my panic, I ran around the rocking chair away from the bushes and got my digital camera nearby. Goodness, it was then after taking this picture that I called hubby telling him that there was a snake. I thought they did not believe me and the photo was not clear. There were also workers that time so they tried to kill the snake with a shovel.

It was a copperhead. A poisonous pit viper. What alarmed me more was that there could still be some of them around and might be camouflaging with the leaves on my way to the garden.

This is a good info about copperheads.
