I have killed 7 Cottonmouth, 1 copperhead this year. Usually only see 2 or 3 a year"
Probable translation: "I have killed 7 water snakes, 1 rat snake this year."
But the "Copperhead" might really have been a Copperhead. I have noticed more and more of them as the number of King Snakes have declined. (Note: "More and more" doesn't mean that all I see are Copperheads; I still see more rat snakes and racers around here than anything else, except water snakes.)
