I hate to remove such beautiful animals from my yard. But i have an 8 year old daughter running around in it.

kinda a bummer. Released down the road from me.

Something wrong with KS. So I guess you will have to click on the link instead.

Excellent photo of the copperhead in that slideshow. I'm going to borrow that to show my sons as I'm helping them distinguish venomous from nonvenomous.

Also clicked back through some of your other photos and those babies are gorgeous.

That little snake has awesome camouflage coloring. You'd never see it in the leaves. I find rattlesnakes occasionally, and relocate them as well. At least the rattlers buzz their tails; if I hear steam hissing from a pipe and know there are no pipes in the vicinity, I freeze until I spot out the snake.

Keeping cats allows man to cohabitate with tigers. Keeping reptiles allows man to cohabitate with dinosaurs.

Thanks for sharing that Rainer. I always thought copperheads were one of the most beautiful of the venomous.

I posted this in the What is it? forum a few days ago. This is a copperhead from a friends backyard. He blended very well with the pinestraw.
