BTW if you haven't already please take a minute to look up what venomous snakes are local to you and familiarize yourself with them
#i joined a local snake ID group recently
#before that i knew roughly how to spot a pit viper and hownto tell a coral from a scarlet snake
#but i didnt really know how to identify specific species other than copperheads
#and now im very confident in my ability to tell water snakes from cottonmouths etc
#and it gives really nice peace of mind
#like. ive seen so many people here in the us south that will freak out of Any snake
#my mom once was yelling and crying trying to get help over a kingsnake on the sidewalk cuz she didnt know if it could kill the dogs
#and people will kill snakes if they dont know [and often will anyway but knowing helps foster appreciation]
#and now i can see a snake and say thats a coachwhip. isnt it pretty. and will gently grab the back end to look at it for just a second more
#before letting it go hide
#idk. i saw a rattlesnake in the woods today
#and its the first time seeing one in the wild like that. and yea it was scary tbh
#and i got a pic but booked it out once it noticed me and reacted
#but i wish i had stopped and watched it longer cuz it was super pretty
#and i know it wouldnt have bothered me at all
#im just glad that we've seen two big full sized diamondbacks here in the past few months. and i know theyre two individuals
#because eastern diamondbacks are declining and its good to know theres a population here
#idk. im getting sentimental over snakes i just love them
#but my main point is its so easy to indentify snakes at least where im at
#and learning to id them comes with learning to respect them
