My first hot!!!!!




This is the beast!! Pretty sure this is a water moccasin/cottonmouth, we couldn't get too close to the head to see, but it was significantly larger than the other two nerodia fasciata (banded water snakes) we saw, and right in the middle of the pic you should be able to make out the head, with a really classic white line running from the eye.

Im so excited to have finally seen my first wild venomous snake!!! Now i just need to knock off the corals, rattlers,and copperheads


This one was hidden under some brush and i couldn't ID 100 percent so i wasn't gonna mess with it, but I'm presuming nerodia



The first nerodia we saw, very heavy girthed, and swam into the water before i could grab her, i was so excited that i forgot to take pictures before i bothered her :P
