Last year I got quite a surprise when a poisonous copperhead snake was hiding under a big piece of lumber I picked up.
Today, it happened again, although this time he was coiled up under a hose and I actually grabbed him as I went to pick up the hose. Luckily when I realized it felt squishy I immediately released and backed off, and yep, there he was staring at me.
I must have startled him as much as it startled me, because he didn't start trying to bite right away when I started to pick him up. This time however, I couldn't let him go with the kids moving in soon, can't have a poisonous snake around!
