Crikey...she was a Grumpy Little Sheila!

I can't claim sole bragging rights! Crocadile Rob Edmunds came up with the stick and the bag that we got this into!

For those of you that didn't get the scoop. I drove down to the field to setup a trainer to fly. I backed in, got out and walked around to the back of the car and when I sat my field box down this "little ripper" was there striking at me! It wasn't about to run off and hide. Knowing that the scouts would be coming down Rob got a stick and a plastic grocery bag. He got the the little guy to wrap around the stick, put him in the bag and I relocated him over by the pond. This is a Copperhead! Now, he was only about 10 inches long and 1/4" diameter, but their venom is more concentrated at this age, though their fangs aren't very long. Of course, were there is one.....you know where this is going. You might be a little more careful next time you go looking for that aircraft down in the brush!
