Yep that's it!
And, what's wrong with that? I could be in the middle of a spot/stalk with my bow on a huge buck and would scream like a girl and start flinging arrows...at the snake! I'm carrying my .38 anywhere I go on the property now especially when walking through oak trees with 6" of leaf litter on the ground.Could be worse, two guys I have hunted with have screamed when almost stepping on snakes, in the middle of a hunt.
Yep. If i plan to get off the cleared ATV trail I have on my snake boots. I have snake gators available for visitors. Too many Pygmy rattlers and cottonmouths have been seen. Not telling how many there are that haven’t been seen.And, what's wrong with that?

Harmless Orb Weaver.But this goes to show how quickly your world can be turned upside down.
I was out in the woods putting out corn and strapping a camera to a tree.
I was holding the short camera strap and reached around the tree to grab the other one that was dangling in the weeds.
I pulled it around and this is what I had.

A gargantuan spider (I've always liked that word... 'gargantuan'... so rarely have an opportunity to use it in a sentence).
I believe it is both venomous and poisonous. And maybe radioactive.
My first thought, of course, was to take off and nuke the entire site from orbit, but I realized I had something even better.
