Date

Description

Second Copperhead of the week, possibly the same individual. Similar size and found in the adjacent flower bed to the previous snake. They are more than welcome to stay.

Edit to add that this individual moved around the same flower bed for another day or two before presumably moving on.

Description

One of two target species at the park but not one I actually expected to find. Lifer, slight aberrancy in pattern. Snake was approximately 10-12in, for anyone who may know would this be a juvenile from this year or last year?
