One of many venomous snakes in South Texas...
Copperhead!!
I got him moved out of the brush...
Took a few photos and then moved him over to some trees on the other side of the property from where I was working. I am sure I will find more. No worries, no problem. They aren't out to get me. In fact this one was moving away from me when I spotted it. Then it curled up next to a tree and tried to hide. They eat mice which carry deadly diseases so I leave the snakes alone and don't hurt them. I'd rather have snakes any day then fields full of mice with fleas, ewww!! I hate fleas!!
I am sure before I am done cleaning brush I'll find more!

Oh my goodness, Wendy! This is something (thankfully) that I don't see here in Montreal. It has a beautiful coloured skin, though.
It is something I've had to get use too. At first I was scared of them but have since learned they aren't out to get me. They have beautiful markings and colors.
