DANGEROUS SNAKE ALERT

So our Ring doorbell sends us alerts.  Sometimes they are funny as it misidentifies an animal.  For example, once it said a pig was on the front porch.  It was the kitty.  Then another time it said there was a French Bulldog.  It was a raccoon.  Then we got this one the other evening:  "A snake is slithering on the porch".

Yeah, sure.


No joke there and not funny, yikes!  We watched it move around.  When I went to look through the door glass, I didn't see anything.  I was hesitant to open the front door.  I had visions of it right on the door threshold and coming into the house, but I carefully checked and it was gone.  I stepped into the front yard and saw it.


We weren't sure what it was, I thought it was a rat snake, but I posted it to a snake group, and it was identified 100% as a venomous cottonmouth!!!  YIKES!!!

We have to be very careful out here, that's for sure.
