Whippoorwills !
DANG CRS!!!
Took me 9 minutes to remember !

Jerry - Yeah I know that Kraig talks to himself ...
LOONs

We have some here but don't hear them that much.

KENtucky, quote: Oh well at least I can go sit on the lake at night and listen to the... Listen to the WHAT?

UNDER EDIT: AH! Whippoorwills. I hate Whippoorwills! Noisy birds... Too bad it's not legal around here to

them...

Jerry, yep, we have loons around. A few weeks ago I was stacking some fire wood and heard one a ways off in a direction away from the river. I thought it might have been the neighbor with a call of some sort. Then a few moments later I heard it call directly overheard. I looked up (mouth shut

) and saw it flying low, headed towards the river. Pretty neat to see and hear it that close.

Update, my neighbors on each side of me have seen the quail around as well. One mentioned that they seem a bit tame. The other mentioned that another neighbor a few miles farther north has seen some come into their bird feeder. Perhaps there's a bunch of them around. I think someone must have let a bunch of them go.

Kraig - What you mean you hate Whippoorwills ?

May the next time you look up at a Loon your mouth flies wide open ...

I'd take sitting on the lake at night listening to Whippoorwills over anyother night.

KENtucky, I used to like Whippoorwills but during the mating season they like to perch on my shed and call all night long! Hard to sleep with them making that racket. Same thing up at the cabin, except they roost in the pine tree just outside the loft window and call.

This is from my Trophy Season bass trip earlier this season, this rock is 36" and the other I dragged in was about 34" they went nicely with a few blue claw crabs (Marylands jewel if you ask me) after a slight rest on the grill.

Glen - Those are nice ones , I'll give ya another thumbs up since you gave yourself one !

I need to get into striper fishing. (spell check wants "stripper") Our state record is 58 pounds and came from Lake Cumberland down the road from me.

Here's some stuff I made 20+ years ago

I had a rifle deer hunter but I gave it to a buddy and never got a pic of it. I used a cloths hanger wire for the rifle barrel. Wish I'd took a pic !

Just got back from checking the cameras at the farm. Oh my!

Bow season opens this Saturday but I'll be camping in Michigan.

 

[kweaver]

Dude ! I want what he's smokin' !!

Kraig - Don't go to MI ... simple enough.

BUG

 

[kmcconaughey]

Here's a couple more. His antlers look a bit like Mule Deer antlers in the top photo.

 

[aschumacher]

Of all people to be bitten by the 'BUG"

 

[kweaver]

Allen - What is it they say , You can lead a photographer to the deer but you can't make him count ...

 

[kmcconaughey]

I've been bitten many times by that archive bug. I thought I'd get the second batch posted before anyone else posted but KENtucky slipped his post in.

Art, before you even ask, the answer is: You may not hunt the farm on the bow opener!

However, I might let your daughter hunt the Youth Deer hunt but that's not until mid October and I hope to have a tag on this guy by then.

Kraig - I use to run track , 100yds in 10 flat ... I'm fast !

 

[bbowman]

Kraig;
Nice buck! You've been growing him for a few years now...I believe it's "time"...Good luck!

 

[wcompton]

Nice muley Kraig!

 

[aschumacher]

What president said "The Buck stops here"?

There was a doe deer with twin fawns at my campsite yesterday. The fawns looked 3 to 4 weeks old. They were gone before i could get my camera from the truck.
