Awesome. I hope you connect. I might have a opening the second week. You interested in another chance at a Columbia county gobbler?

Lol, I guess I'm as guilty. Shame on me..

Watched them for around a hr. I've hunted this property for over 30 yrs, and have never seen them in this little field this time of yr. I've seen them in this field every other morning for the last 10 days.

Turkeys are also on the list of critters that a fisher targets. Several years ago I roosted a big tom in a big hemlock. Next morning I was 60yrds from that tree. Was misting rain, but he was very vocal and tommy started gobbling. Seen some movement 20 yards to my left and watched a fisher climb that tree on the opposite side of the tom. That thing stalked that tom, and only moved when he gobbled. The tom was probably 20' out from the trunk on a large limb. Dam fisher was inching closer on the bottom of the limb, but the tom spotted him and flew off. I killed that tom later that morning sitting by the same tree I watched the fisher from. I know it was the sametom because he had two tail feathers missing.

Photos suck, probably 150+ yards out. Through binos, I watched the same tom breed 4 hens. There were 3 other toms and a few jake's and around 14 hens.

Great pics. I don't think those are golden eagles. They have a black beak. Looks like yellow is starting to develop on the beaks in your pics.

Sad the direction our country is headed. Glad your buddy is ok.

Thanks for the info. I knew it would have limited applications. Don't see these in house's, lol. I know it's a shame, but I'll probably scrap it. Called a couple places, and they didn't have any interest.

Client is having some buildings demolished. This cutoff box has two 400amp fuses. I've already stripped the wire out of it, but wondering if this box it worth saving

Got one decent run 10 day ago. Lucky it got cold and froze solid in our building tank as we didn't get another run till this past Sunday. Boiled down 500 gal Monday. Hopefully we'll get another run end of this week. Been a PITA with all this wind. Constantly walking the sugarbush fixing lines.

Congrats. IIRC, we both ordered or trucks around the same time in May. Got mine end of November. Interesting yours is a 2021 and mines a 2022. Not sure why a 1500 would be different than a 2500?

With food prices going up and up, I foresee a increase in poaching. Poaching is a big issue in my area, and it's not going to get better. Hopefully it won't impact my family's harvest.

Those tracks in the article are identical to what i seen. Thanks for posting that.

Those look a lot different then what I posted. Pic you posted has 4 toes. My pic looks like thers only 3? I know cats won't show claw marks, and since I didn't see any I automatically though bobcat. Thanks for the clarification. Is it common for coyote for the back paw to step in the front? The walking tracks(didn't take a pic) look like one paw in front of the other, almost like a two legged critter, lol.

Well I guess picks would help, lol

Rear track is on top of the front one, and I'm not seeing any claw marks. Do bobcats step on the front track while walking? Not the best picks. Key fob for size reference.

Was over the the farm yesterday and see a flock of 23 toms and jake's. Counted at least 8 toms. There were probably a few more. Hard to get a accurate count with them constantly moving around.

So let's say your wife is 3 months pregnant, and she looses the baby. No big deal because "it" couldn't live on its own. Pretty basic.

Ya, ok.

Well, at least you didn't disagree with his statement.

I knew the exact post he was referring to, as did you.

Nice buck. I've seen bucks in February before, but never actually seen one chasing does and grunting.

Hard maples, 40-1. Soft maples 55-1. As the season progresses, the rate goes up as the sugar levels drop in the sap.

That, and lot of people sweeten their tea, drizzle on vanilla ice cream, baking, ECT. I've heard of people putting in on rice.

Started tapping today. Got about 200 in. Another 50 or so to do tomorrow. Thinking about adding a additional mainline and adding another 50+ taps. The squirrel's did a number on our lateral lines. Used 500' of tubing today to fix all the damage they did. Furry little bastards chewed through not only tubing, but fitting's also.
