RE: Went walking the banks the other day....
When I took these, I could see at least 4 and as many as 7 at any one time. They really were everywhere. I wanted to grab one but they were too close to the water. Plus I wasn't sure which they were. Watersnakes I think I can handle, but I don't play with them cottonmouths at all. I thought cottmouths were darker, but I wasn't sure. I thought this was a nice treat, seeing so many at a time.
