Copperheads
Joanna Bourne, Historical Romance
Rives Park — local here — has a nest of copperheads. Some poor dog got bit and they’re worried whether he’ll make it or not.
Animal Control collected 3 baby copperheads, (Doesn’t that sound endearing? Little baby copperheads.) but warned that there may be others. Animal Control is not for sissies.
Anyway, I won’t be walking Mandy there for the nonce.
Back in Saudi Arabia,
(relatively few countries are named after people. America, Bolivia, Columbia, Monrovia, but not, y’know, Chad,)
we had a viper under one of the bushes in the housing next door. Very poisonous. It was the compound with all the kids, of course. One of the dogs spotted it and did the hysterical barking thing so nobody got bit.
Though, for all I know it was a peaceful committed pacifist snake minding its own business.
The gardeners had to go kill it, that being in the job description. Being a gardener in West Africa is one of those jobs with a lot of side benefits.
I’ll be cowriting with friends in a bit so I will warn the one who lives next to Rives Park to be cautious.
RITA-winning author Joanna Bourne writes historical fiction set in Revolutionary and Napoleonic France and Regency England. It was a time of love and sacrifice, clashing ideals, and really cool clothing.
