      <image:caption>Copperhead: the most common, venomous snake on our property. We see 5-6 every spring/summer. Known to be rather shy, most bites occur when people accidentally step on them OR their dogs attack them and the people intervene. Copperheads hunt in the evening (between 9 and 10 pm). Be especially aware during this time of where you walk and consider keeping your dog on a leash in these evening hours. If you see one, notify Kevin and we will attempt to capture &amp; relocate.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>A young male taking a stroll across the property (spring, 2020). In general, black bears are very shy and do not want to interact with people. If you see them, feel honored as they do not like our barking dogs &amp; rarely venture on our property. They do go to our neighbors (the vineyard and also down Wheeler cabin road) quite often. If you do see them and~ 1) they are far away- be quiet, enjoy watching them but PLEASE do not approach them to try to feed or photograph them. 2) they are mid-range: back away slowly. 3) they are close— Raise your arms to look big &amp; make noise (yell, scream, blow a whistle). If you are walking your dog &amp; your dog attacks the bear do NOT try to intervene. This is the most common way people suffer serious bear attacks. This is also why we suggest all dogs are ON LEASH while hiking in this area.</image:caption>
