I live out on Oologah Lake, and I just got home from running my dog. As I was coming down the hill at twilight, I thought I saw a dead squirrel in the road. As I was running past it, I noticed whatever it was lunged at me...I screamed, and I'm sure I peed a little. Anywho, it was a coiled Copperhead (yes, it was a Copperhead..they are plentiful out here) and it it came within about a foot of biting me in the hogg.
Damned if I didn't almost have a heart attack.
