Hey Classic, nice to see you.
I was out in Lancaster County yesterday and we were just sitting in the back yard shooting the shit. Spent half the time swatting or stepping on Spotted Lanternflies. They're an invasive Asian first spotted about 20 miles from the Walmart where Stinkbugs first arrived, but now a third of PA is infested.

The whatever-it-is on the left seems somewhat overmatched by the whatever-it-is on the right.

I think wolf and, based on the cat tail, a badly drawn lion.

Cat tail, maybe paws too, but not even close to a cat head.

This guy was calmly patrolling his neighborhood this morning.
He only paused and looked up at me when I tapped on the window. Very handsome fellow.

Not as big as ours, but that 'yote looks pretty dang healthy.

I glanced at this picture then had to back up and look again because something was wrong about it...
It took me a couple of minutes to figure out what was wrong. It was upside down... Cats can really get down, they look like that Fordzilla race car where the wheel arch is the tallest thing you see...

By hanging out in a blind for hours and hours a Dentist finally got this first known picture of a fledgling.
The dark beak is proof it's young. After all the King deserves respect...

I have my trail cam set out, charged up and waiting for a repeat of the evening before last when I got up during the 6 o'clock news and looked out of my living room window at the front lawn and watched a bear walk by. About ten feet away.
I am still a little buzzed by the sight since I have lived in this admittedly rural area for 48 years and never seen a bear closer than ten miles away and then up in the hills. He wasn't a very big or old black bear, maybe 150-200 pounds and not black but brown. I closed some doors and followed his wanderings around the yard through different windows. He got to a corner with a closed gate and reversed his route, ending up in a clump of berry bushes. I alerted some neighbors, made sure the cat was inside, put a ten round mag in the Mini-14 and ventured out with no good plan. My young neighbor came over with his deer rifle and we tried to locate Mr. Bruin for about a half hour before decided he had left the area the way he came. Checking with some folks across the road and with a vineyard next to wilder country turned out they saw a family regularly munching their pinot noir. OK. A bear. My first one, never even showing up on critter cam. Never any scat or overturned trash cans, including the ones lined up every week along the road. So I guess I will pay a little more attention for a while dusk to dawn. There will be a related post tomorrow in the guns thread. |
