Visitor this morning

They show up when the hummingbird feeders go out and the fawns are dropping.

Can't see a photo...I assume bear

People are seeing them here also. Starting to move around. Love is in the air!!

They have been around here too looking for fawns and my bird feeders. The shotgun by the door is loaded with rubber buckshot as we speak.

I'd rather have snakes

The end is the same, they all get shot. The Diaper eaters are easier to see than snakes.

Cathryn,have one charge you,when your knee deep in water holding a 60 pound beaver. I too would have preferred snakes,but wished even more for my 870 filled with slugs.

I had one tore up my beehive yesterday. Sitting on watch with my 12 gage. old243

Bears suck.

Zim

On snowshoes with a 22 revolver isn't much better.

just stay prepared!

dang corky, it looks like you live in a park!

Ridge Runner1960, I seen about a 300 pounder shot from about 20 yards with a 2 3/4 inch 12 gauge load of buckshot. It just made an oof sound and collapsed. If I had bee hives and thought I might need to shoot one off the back porch I would have a 300wm2703087mmmag leaning up by the back door.

I'd a died right there

This picture at this time will probably put you on a government watch list. I would suggest removing it.

Thanks. Looks are deceiving. Been fighting gout for 3 weeks and the yard work is not getting done.
