“Snoozin” Alaska Moose

We have a whole house fan just up over the moose’s head. I caught him snoozin’ under the warmth of it and reluctant to leave his spot. They do that, snooze in town, during the day. I think they feel safer that way.

Beach: Hutchinson Island, St. Lucie County, Florida

The day after Christmas, my wife and I set out on a two-day expedition exploring parts of Florida we haven’t seen yet. It was a mostly cloudy day but the sun would occasionally peek through the clouds. Looking south down the beach, bright rays of sunshine glared through openings in the dark clouds illuminating the waters of the Atlantic Ocean while making the frothing waves glow bright white.

Dude! Is This A Freak Buck Or What?

I have one report that this deer weighed 440 pounds before it was field dressed. Is this a hunting ranch deer?

Update: Well, seems via some searching on the part of readers, we’ve discovered this “trophy” deer picture on a website that shows the game farm and preserve where the deer was taken.

It Could Get Dangerous When Deer Fight

I can’t seem to find much information on these photos. They were sent to me by a reader. When everything is put in perspective, even though the focus is on the horn lodged in the buck’s right eye, that’s a pretty good sized deer.

Got Watchdog?

What does your watchdog look like? Yes, that’s the front entrance and I don’t think his name is Fido.

High Noon In Alaska

High noon looks like a Florida sunset – all day; so it’s hoarfrost time in the north country at zero degrees.

Williams Buck: Trophy Buck Or Not A Trophy Buck

Well, by now you know how these things go. They come in to my email box and I try to authenticate them and most of the time I can’t. However, the pictures are worth looking at even if the story is not accurate. Here’s what I received. You make the call.

This came to me from reader “Jim”.

Here are some early photos of a great deer taken during the youth hunt this year. This buck green scores 203 Typical, NET, not gross. If so, this would place this buck in the top Three typical all time in Wisconsin , and that includes the great Jordan Buck at 207 that was world record for decades. These pictures were taken in front of the Cabala’s store in Prairie du Chien. The hunter shown in the Picture a 15 year old Williams’s boy from Millville , WI the deer was shot between Millville and Woodman the buck was shot with a rifle during the youth Hunt in early October. This deer has 16 inch tines. The manager at Cabelas Offered him $25,000 on the spot the day the pictures were taken. Cabela’s offer included making a replica set of antlers that look identical to the originals and the hunter would be able to keep the cape. The boy and his father turned down that offer. The manager then called the Cabelas headquarters in Nebraska and immediately got permission to offer the boy $61,000 for the rack. He still said no. Writers and photographers from various deer magazines descended on Wisconsin to see the deer so I’m sure you will see more about this buck in the upcoming days and Woodman. The buck was shot with a rifle during the youth hunt in early October.

Yardbirds: Turkeys In The Yard

This short narrative and photos come from reader “jes” in Florida.

Nice flock in my yard today, they cleaned up my yard, then went to the feeder in my front field and had a feeding frenzy..These birds are just a year old, except the hens who have had several clutches, and are still producing large broods…photos were taken through the glass window..there were ten in this flock and nine in the flock that came by earlier..
These are the results of keeping feeders active throughout the year….Although I’ve lived here for over 56 years, it’s only been the last 7-9 years that turkeys have been coming through the area where I live…and I’ve been feeding them for at least 9-10 years, hoping to get them settled in ….they wander through the neighborhood, coming back for the supplemental feed that helps get them through …and they are always a pleasure to watch. This flock was probably all from one “clutch”, or one hen, although sometimes two or more “clutches” will get together, and sometime even many more! Later in the year, they will separate, and go different ways, gobblers with gobblers, hens with hens, and then again they will band together, into even larger flocks. If enough neighbors will “provide” for them, they will stay in an area, and live their lives without wandering far enough to go where they may fall prey to disaster..or someone’s dinner table. Even though I hunt spring gobblers every year, I have only hunted one of these “homebirds” One year when I was so crippled from a heel spur that I couldn’t hunt my usual hunting area, I was up at early light, taking the dog out, when I heard the gobble of a bird in response to slamming the door behind me….and after limping to a tree in my front field, sat and called in the first and only bird I have killed on my home ground..and that corn fed bird was mighty fat and sweet…
