It's certainly possible that it was a venomous snake as there are plenty of
them down there, but more likely it was not. Most snake bites are from
NON-venomous snakes.
If you do not know your snakes it is VERY foolish to pick them up!
It is also VERY irresponsible to try to scare someone with a snake! I get angry when I hear of such things! Snakes are already misunderstood and feared by many & idiots like that do nothing to help the situation!
One thing's for sure. This guy will not likely make that same mistake again. LOL

I did stop to watch a cottonmouth (or one heck of a good look-alike)
swimming up Little Femme Osage creek yesterday. But by the time I got my
camera out, I'd lost sight of it.
Getting ready to head out to look for "Up & Down" - if the rain holds
off..
