Thank you - that would have been my guess from other entries, but it was too quick to get a good look at the head and I wasn’t sure if the colouring was too dark.

Most likely species based on locality and what I can see?

Thank you, I was thinking it was a copperhead too. It was a brief encounter as I came upon it quite quickly and closely

Not much to go on with this image but I think it looks more like a Copperhead. Happy to stand corrected.
