Water Moccasin Gape
This water moccasin was in a swamp in Pasquotank County, North Carolina. Snakes get such a bad rap no thanks to the bible. This snake gapped and gapped and never once struck. I even turned it over to photograph the underneath of a water moccasin. While not all snakes can be handled this way, each has its own personality, some strike and strike, usually immature snakes, but they all will act differently. I just wish the ignorance about them could be abolished.
