-forgot that snakes are an additional hazard for Birders in your area! Definitely have to be aware of what your stepping on when you are looking up a tree!

To be honest, I forgot they were a hazard, too. I was breathless when I found that I had a cottonmouth not 4 feet away from me. When I go to ponds like that in the summer, I usually bring somebody to tag along (not to mention my cell phone, if I were to get bitten). Just for somebody to be a spotter for birds, aswell as snakes!!
