The whole "triangle head" thing is NOT how to identify venomous snakes. Many harmless snakes will flatten their head when threatened to align their eyes more forward for better binocular/stereo vision which presses the back of their jaw outward giving them the "triangle head". Where ever you live in the US, there are only a couple you need to be familiar with. Anything with a rattle is generally easy to identify. Copperheads and cottonmouths are easy to ID once you familiarize and stop trying to call anything with a pattern a copperhead and anything near water a cottonmouth. Coralsnakes aren't aggressive and have a very limited range in Georgia. If you happen to be in their range, just remember don't touch the ones where red touches yellow. Scarlet kingsnakes and young milksnakes often get mistaken for corals and senselessly killed. Cottonmouths range stops around the macon area but runs up the SC line. There are NONE in the Atlanta area or North Ga Mtns. It is a crime to harm or possess native non venomous snakes in Georgia. So if you are a skeerdycat snake hating pansy that kills every snake you see, make sure and post pics here so I can turn them into DNR...and please die young. The quicker your kind extincts itself, the better the world will become. (not speaking to any certain person...just that general ignorant mindset) I've done wildlife rehab most of my adult life specializing mainly in reptiles so it's a bit of a sore spot.
I almost agree with you, until I see one near my kid in the yard. I figure what it is when the head is detached.

Title should have said "ANOTHER Crazy ass woman"....
