Moxie Back in the Field on Sunday












Moxie got bit by a Copperhead snake Wednesday, but after a lot of swelling, treated with Benadryl, she was back in the field again on Sunday like nothing had happened.  She bolted two groundhogs, so not too bad a day, and the weather was gorgeous. This was the view from one of the holes.

  2. Moxie, so glad to hear you are ok and back in the field.

    BTW, in the wow-I-didn't-know-that department, I just read that ...
    "Opossums eat fruits, *snakes* (opossums are immune to all types of snake venom, except that of the coral snake), insects, snails, slugs, eggs, mice, rats, fish, frogs, crayfish, and carrion. If for no other reason than pest control, opossums are great to have around!" --www.dfwwildlife.org/opossum.html
