These guys are of the family Nerodia. There are numerous members of this Water Snake family that are called anything from Copperheads to Cotton Mouths,(improper identification) but they are harmless. They do have an enzyme in thier bite that contains a type of anti- coagulant that promotes bleeding. But these guys are harmless to humans.
