Stephen wanted his dad to show him where he caught water moccasins at Cape Hatteras as a teen. So Cal, Steve and I went to a pond near sunset to hunt for them. Steve's recent laser eye surgery paid off and he spotted two. The first was a thick bodied adult with its mouth wide open and we could see up close why they call them cottonmouths. The second was a two footer and I managed to take a short video of him catching it. I might add that I stayed a comfortable distance from both.

What part of poisonous does he not understand? I hope the title of the next post isn't "Crocodile Cal Discovers Hospitality in the Local ER". You are a braver person than I - you would find me at least 50' away from the snake.
We did talk about what to do IF someone was biten. As I watched the snakes I realized they were anxious to get away and not confront us.
I forgot to tell you - I love the new picture at the top of the blog!
That is so cool!
