Copperhead scales are at most weakly keeled. These are strongly keeled, so most likely a Nerodia water snake, probably northern.
Nailed it!

As long as you're not needing to use your canoe, you're fine.
Thats a juvenile Water Moccasin, since you live damn near in Canada, I wouldn't sweat it. You live farther north than they do.
Took me a second to find that one ^.
Oops, sorry. I didn't realize I had posted this one before.Heck, I STILL can't find it, and I saw that SAME photo last year!
Yes, but I wasn’t interested in finding it. I don’t think snake stands out like corn....Ever have snakes in your stool?

There is a Copperhead barely visible just above he horizontal stick in the center of the frame.
Well, they don't WANT to be found. They know with us it's always get the shovel first, ask questions later.After you gave us the hint, I had to increase the magnification on my screen and I could barely see the side of the snake! That is some world-class camouflage going on.
The only way I knew he was there, was because I watched him go there. They blend in well.After you gave us the hint, I had to increase the magnification on my screen and I could barely see the side of the snake! That is some world-class camouflage going on.
