On 8-13-08 while visiting Nockamixon State Park in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, a friend and I observed a snake swiming in the lake near the shoreline. When I first saw it, it was resting in the water with it's head out of the water watching us. When it began to swim, my friend and I were shocked to the see the coloring of a northern copperhead. I was highly sceptical but it did look like a copperhead. I just spent time researching to see if I could find any information that would indicate that copperheads do enter the water and swim underneath the water for periods of time as this snake did. We watched him for about 15 minutes as (s)he swam under and around the rocks in about 8 to 12 inches of water. The snake came to the surface on two occasions to watch us... especially me as I was walking down the shoreline to continue observing for as long as I could.
Most Copperhead Snakes live near creeks and in woodlands.They can go to creeks,or there can be rainy days that cause small floods,which they can find mini ponds.Most live near old houses,where normally a lake or small garden will be near to find water at.
Copperhead snakes do enjoy being in the water but do not generally live in water. They prefer dry land and are commonly found on eastern states.

Ohio has only three species of venomous snakes, two of which have rattles at the end of the tail (Eastern Massauga (pictured right) & Timber Rattlesnake). The third species is the Northern copperhead. Although many believe the water moccasin occurs in Ohio, it actually ranges no farther north than the Dismal Swamp in southeastern Virginia in the eastern portion of its range, and extreme southern Indiana and Illinois, in the western part of its range. Water moccasins are not native to Ohio.

Copperhead snakes are found in North America. These snakes tend to live in the forest, near swamps, and near rocky areas as well. Their diets consist mostly of mice and other rodents.
No. Copperheads and rattlesnakes are related, but the copperhead is notable in that it lacks a rattle.
