Did you know that if you think you smell cucumbers, you probably found a copperhead?

I like cucumbers....when you belch 'em up a few hours later, they taste exactly the same as when you at 'em.
Can't sat that for copperheads......

So you're smelling the copperhead belch up a cucumber that it ate several hours ago? 
One thing about DTR, you never know where or how far a thread will go. Six pages and counting and we've gone from IDing a rat snake to spiders to pictures of a huge snake in an electric fence to spiders to potato beetles to belching cucumbers.

Still, I'd rather have any snake on the planet in or around a pool than these individuals.
At least snakes apply to common laws of anatomy. If I can kill it my taking off its head and tearing its body into five pieces, it isn't a problem. Patato Bugs don't apply to that rule.
