Stuart and the Copperhead

This is a copperhead that Stuart found about a week ago.
He was very angry with it and kept throwing it up in the air, even after it was dead.
A few hours later we discovered that he had been bitten by it! His snout was very swollen.
It's hard to tell in these pictures, but he looked like he had a couple golf balls stuffed in his cheeks.
He had a quick recovery....if you had seen him the next morning, you would never have thought that he had been bitten!

At the Tennessee River

On Wednesday we went to the river for a picnic with the Palmers. In this picture we are all staring at a young man who tried to mow up a hill and his riding mower turned over. It flipped 3 or 4 times on the way down, but he jumped off just in time and was fine.Here he is after he got his mower started again.Looking at a fishWe found this huge copperhead eating a fish!A closer lookHere is another copperhead that came out from under a rock.
