What's the report from everyone on their season this year? Disappointing? Exciting? Better than expected? This has been a better year for me than the last few years since the 2017-18 season. I didn't have huge quantities but have had some quality hunts. Found a new place to hunt that has...

Well as 2023 rolls in I walked out to my shop and noticed all the in finished projects that are cluttering the space and decided I really need to catch up on things. Having 3 young boys makes for little time and painting the decoys that are stacked up is a challenge since I might be pulled away...

The tundra swan visit me every year in the fields near my house but normally never in the field right behind my house. So this year I asked permission from the father-in-law to put a dyke in the ditch to flood the field out some. With the dry year the field sat with no water for a couple months...

Was cutting up a hickory yesterday and found some mushrooms on a dead section. Looking at my mushroom book the only thing I see that seems to fit its profile is an oyster mushroom but want to see what some of y'all say. It's a decent size with the singles measuring up to 5" across

On Friday evening my oldest brother Joshua, and I scouted a piece of our property where we have shot a few turkeys in seasons past. We saw two toms and some hens go into the pine and hardwood hills that are next to a swamp, which is where I also do some wood duck and squirrel hunting. We never...

has anyone here ever had nature bring a pet to you? I know Al Hansen has a bunch of quail that frequent his back yard every day, so does anyone else have wildlife they "tend" to? It seems that I have acquired a pet and there is no returning her. A couple weeks ago a squirrel showed up at my...
