Today’s harvest (Not for weenies)

[HSigurdsson]

Ive been getting a few tree rats.
They need culling around here and unfortunately they taste good too.

God i wish i had a squirrel problem, or a dove problem, or a groundhog problem.
Right now, my only problem is a pair of freezers that grows emptier by the day. Its a 6 deer year, and i intend to do just that. Maybe i can have some early season fortune and still have Mrs Crow in a good mood by the time big duck season rolls around.

How about chipmunks?
These furry monsters are back.
They used to be so bad I needed to eliminate them by the dozen. Then a couple years ago they just disappeared. It turns out there were a couple hawks keeping them in check in our yard. Now the hawks moved on and the munks are back.
May be time to get the 10/22 back in action.
And yes, they are tasty too....a pain to process but taste good.
Oh, and the crows are out of control as usual. We are harvesting corn, oats, rye and alfalfa soon, and they know it.

Beautiful dogs. I need a good bird dog. I put up 7 grouse today and probably walked 5 or 6 miles in the thick Poplar and birch. Guess how many shots I got? 0 lol.

I used to live in a healthy ruffed grouse habitat but now would take me around 3-4 seasons to see 7 grouse. I go each season after centerfire deer and still enjoy myself but in reality it's just hiking with a double gun lmao. even with a dog The King of the Woods is tough to get a shot on, but yes you need a doggo on principle

Last week I got this with my bow.
I still have a buck tag and 2 DMPs for regular season.
We eat a lot of venison but usually stop at 3 deer, its just me and my wife.

I havent bird hunted in a few years...except turkey.
But last year I hit a pheasant at 60 miles per hour in my wifes Nissan Rouge. I saw it run into the road, I heard the hit, but there was no bird skidding down the road behind me...so I stopped. The bird was "fine" and flew away eventually.

That’s wild! Yeah ditch chickens aren’t the smartest. We hit a hen but she was not so lucky.
