Weedin'

Looks like an innocent agave plant.

Hummm! A colorful snake just where I pulled that big grass weed.

Sssssssssssssss!

Dead copperhead! My Dutch "schoffel" hoe was the weapon!

Yellow tail helped with identification.

Wat een griezel Linda, goed dat je de schoffel bij de hand had. Ik moet er niet aan denken zo iets
hier tegen te komen.
Groetjes, Janneke

Oh, that's so frightening! Sometime I found snakes come across my garden.

Yikes!! Do you have many copperheads in your area?? We do not have any poisonous snakes in our area of Wisconsin.
