So I arrived at our house last night after having dinner with my dad, brother and his family. As I walked to the back door, I spotted what appeared to be a baby snake curled up on one of the slate stones that form the walk to my backdoor. Our area is home to copperheads and we have found baby ones in our yard before, so I approached with caution. He wasn't moving as I came closer. He just lay there motionless.
Perhaps he is sleeping I thought. "hello mr snake" I politely said while poking him with a long stick.
Mr snake then began squirm about in a random fashion. Wrapping himself around the end of the stick.
Then I noticed something else "mr snake where has your head gone?"
That's right I came home to find a headless baby copperhead on my sidewalk. now where his head wandered off to I have no idea but if anyone out there has an extra could you send it our way. Mr snake would be most appreciative. Thanks
