What Did You Do Today?

That is a big one Clint. Yup they sure can mess up your lawn.  Looks like a fine pup. I don't see any problem with the length of his legs.

It must be mole season, I seldom see one in my yard but one has my front yard in a mess as of yesterday.

I already have a mole hide in the freezer Bill.  I want to do some tanning this winter. 

Next time I might try to stick one with an arrow when I see it digging.

tis the season with those little SOB's. The last time I cleaned my yard up with the rider it was like riding on a roller coaster.

What did I do today: Just put the finishing touches up on 8 stone knives that I knapped and put handles on. Photo's later once my bride gets home to shrink them down for me.  Also starting to get ready for our winter trip to the S.W.

Saw the pictures in the Flint knapping section jeb. Really nice knives and great pictures.
Have a wonderful safe trip

A few days ago when I was leaving the land in Tn I hunt after dark, an armadillo scurried across the road in front of me. Seeing as how I have had a long running war with these critters I swerved my truck and turned the armadillo into a road pizza.

As I drove to the land this evening I topped a little rise where I hit the armadillo and there were two mature bald eagles having a pizza dinner.

I drove right up to them, the first I have ever seen close up. They left the armadillo and flew about 15 yards away into a soybean field and just stood there looking at me. I was able to snap one picture out the window before my camera batteries died. I didn't know he was looking the other way when I took the picture but at least I got one picture.

Seeing eagles in south central Tn is very rare.

That's a cool picture.  I see them cruising above the river at work and near my house about once or twice a year.  They are cool birds.

Several years ago I put a coyote carcasse in the field at the end of my dead end road. Usually the hawks and seagulls clean them up. The first morning I went back to look I couldn't figure out what was there as I drove back. It ended up it was a very large bald eagle eating the carcasse. About thirty feet away was a hawk and about fifty feet away several sea gulls. You could see the picking order. Since then I've started putting the carcasse in the field right behind my barn. I have a pair that I see regularly now. This summer I had three hanging around. I do enjoy watching them. I think they were hunting for ground hogs.

Just a normal day; I made abut 4 qts of spaghetti sauce to freeze in one serving packs, I finished some arrows for my granddaughter, I cut up several blight killed red oaks in my woods. I have found removing them stops the blight from spreading. I sharpened all my chainsaw chains, I picked a bunch of spinach to drop of at the house of a pretty gal I know that I used to date.

I enjoyed the beautiful weather by spending all day in the woods.  I cut some osage and cut some new trails through our property.

 Wow Pat. 
Congrats to you and your wife I bet you have a lot of great memories.

I worked on some phragmites arrows that I am wanting to use this turkey season.
