Yesterday I set out to check out a few dikes that I haven't seen in awhile. They werent home though, so I went out in the woods instead. :) I was actually looking for critter tracks and some future snare locastions and came across some unusual finds. I am always looking at the ground for...

I got up early yesterday to take advantage of our brief deep freeze hoping to get some good ice photos along the Albertson Branch near my house. I had my woods puppy, Hunter, with me who is a 5 month old Springer. It was a balmy 7 degrees when we left the house. Surprisingly, the open bogs...
