Seeing a copperhead 6 inches from your face, not a great way to start the day. #copperheads #snakes

What happened?

Yikes! 😳

Sending you a big hug 🫂

You should shake it off... take a few minutes to literally physically shake your body and send signal to your body that you are now safe.

Yikes! 😬 you could probably skip the coffee today

Luckily i had already enjoyed my coffee😊

😯😮

That will make you skipp coffee and go right to needing to take a shit 🚽

Yikes...be careful. That was your freebie.

I've had multiple freebies, been lucky.

👀 🙂‍↔️

Oh my goodness!! I can’t even ! Terrifying. I can only guess you were gardening and reached over to grab something. The imagination alone is enough to upset me. So glad you are safe. I am absolutely snake phobic. I can’t even see pics without freaking out.

Yeah, was reaching down to grab a water pail.

What do you do if a snake is that close? Is it safe to move? I’ve heard to stay still if a venomous snake is very closeby because the vibrations from moving can scare them, making them strike.

I do not like snakes. Of any kind. They’re neat on YouTube or in their area at the zoo. But they’re called “nope ropes” for a reason.

Copperheads are usually pretty chill and not aggressive unless you step on one or get too close. Today i was reaching down to grab a water pail when i noticed it. I just moved back slowly, but it made my heart jump.
