There are no limitations as to where snares can be set but one has to excercise common sense and consideration for others when setting them. I received my snare certification two years ago but have not had the time to get serious until this year. I have had a bait set and several trail sets...

I am really disappointed with you Ed! :) I have been hearing them quite a bit during this winter bow season. Always a beautiful sound at the end of the hunt.

The numbers within the disc constitute the surveyor's license number. For about the last 25 years, corner markers set by us, including rebar and monuments, have to have the name of the firm or individual on them and must include the license number of the surveyor in responsible charge of the...

I remember it like it was yesterday. My dad picked up me and a buddy up at Square Circle where we were playing ice hockey on the lake. My dad had a yellow '67 Impala convertible with three on the tree. This was back when lakes froze in the winter, before Al Gore put the voodoo whammy on us all...

That goose looks like his parents might have pulled an Obama. :)

Life sounded so much more grand and stylish back then. In reality, it is just the style of the writing and not necessarily the event itself that imparts that perception.. Today an article on the opening of a rail line would most certainly not be so well written and would probably not receive...

That is the location of Belleplain State Forest at present Guy. Looks like you guys had a great trip. I wish I could have made this one because that area is unexplored territory for me.

This article from the Montana Trappers association says that they often lope and then slide as they travel. http://www.montanatrappers.org/furbearers/river-otter1.htm This article talks about the sliding and its uniqueness. http://www.otternet.com/ROA/Fall1999/otterslides.htm The fish...

I vote otter. They will do their slide even across a flat surface from what I have read. I have seen and photographed otter slides on grassed slopes adjoining bogs and it is an amazing phenomenon. Otters are animals that appear to do things to purely to have fun, which is out of the normal...

Beautiful Ed. I love winter and the rugged beauty it brings.

I later found that the Mrsid viewer has been updated and after downloading the latest version, it works well with the new maps too.

This guy has had this for a few years and the website has made the rounds of all the sportsman's associations emaillings. According to the owner, he will be shutting down at the end of this month, relocating and starting up again in September Here is another popular deer cam...

Thanks Boyd. I have the MrSid viewer but I had no luck in opening the maps. I resorted to the Global Mapper and everything worked fine. Scott

That's interesting Dragon. I assumed the turtle was a redbelly since the one I found two years ago definitely was. I thought maybe death and weathering caused the red color loss. The shell is 13" x 8". The shell is olive brown on top and glossy, while the bottom is a dull yellow. Red eared...

I left it intact and I want to go back again and do some more forensics. As I said, I didn't find a head and he was entwined under a small branch on the stump. It is probably a common water snake from its location on a narrow dike between two bogs. I am like a little kid when I find stuff...

Nice outing Guy and Jess. I just walked past the one on the Albertson off 206 yesterday afternoon and I thought of you two. That is the one where my son and I ran into you a few years ago while hunting. That area is now almost completely swept clean of deer, unfortunately.

You are a regular Tom Bodett! That was a neat run Ben. I always thought about doing something similar along the Black Horse Pike as it passes through the pines. Beginning in Cecil and headed east, there area lot of unusual motels, buildings and businesses, some abandoned, some not, and then...

That is the second one I have found in that area. The other was about two years ago and I posted pics of that one too. That one was fresh. The one I found yesterady was as clean as a whistle and it really looked out of place in the middle of that road.

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...
