An eastern copperhead presumably in ambush position, or perhaps just flattening itself underneath the warmth of the tin, or both! Not sure. What I do know is that I had to always see rodent burrows and mice scuttling about whenever I lifted this tin. That was until the copperheads started showing up of course. #herping #copperhead | Roadtripmonster

Baby Broad-banded Copperhead gently being pet with a stick....what will be it's response? This video also provides a glimpse into their inquisitive nature...notice how it's studying everything that's new to it. (I do not recommend anyone interact with a venomous snake unless they are an experienced professional.) #naturelovers #copperhead #wildlife #nature #snakes #calmmind | The Copperhead Den
