Yes, we are back at our house in the country. My Darling Hubby found this copperhead in our front flower bed.

These snakes are common in Texas and are highly poisonous. Fortunately, Hubby saw it before he saw my husband.

Take a good look at this copperhead so you can identify it in case they're also common where you live.
