Snake Identification

[ShooterJ]

Did you at least get a new pair of boots or a belt out of the ordeal?

I did not... I've had my ass kicked by a squirrel.. so I didn't want to try my luck with a diamond back. Lol

It wasn't me.:mrgreen:

The thought never entered my mind. Lol

You seem nice .. what attacked me in the hammock was a soulless psychotic ball of fur and death, thirsty for war and carnage.

I don't fear anything furry that I can pick up and throw.

You'd think so.. picking up and throwing a living weed eater proved a challenge though.

Children at that lake still tell campfire stories about that Banshee that haunts the woods, screaming...

When I was a kid I always thought there must be some shred of truth to them, always wondered how they got started.

Now I know it's because some poor schmuck just slept under the wrong tree...

I heard that squirrels can be viscous if they feel threatened and/or they're corners.

Only the way to tell is up close triangle head and cat vertical slit eyes,it's venomous. A roundish head and round pupils its not a cotton mouth.Cant always go buy the round pupils though for some species. I am no snake expert I just watch a lot of NatGeo - Animal planet.

Why not, I think anything feeling threaten can go in to attack mode.When I was a kid I watched the family cat get attacked by a blue jay and knocked the cat out off the tree branch.Funny as hell until it started to do drive by's around my head.
