Disrespecting Glacier
I routinely pick up trash people have left behind in the woods. Something my dad taught me. Grandma (his mom) always said "respect her and she will reward you" in reference to the outdoors. Her great grandmother was Cherokee. I suspect that is were my family's close connection to the wilds...- dcopas78

Fall Hunt related: Covid-19 On The Rise <See Post #9 before posting>
Still hasn't changed anything with mine and dads trip to Wyoming. Packing snacks and food for the road/camp just like always, paying at the pump, no restaurants, probably take some naps by pulling in some place on the way out. The only thing I may need to have contact wit anyone outside of...- dcopas78

Raising some coturnix
10 hatched yesterday and several more are breaking through this morning. Once they get dried off and their legs under them man are they busybodies. They zoom all over the place.- dcopas78

Garden Harvest
Got my onions drying now too Raised beds are doing well. Carrots, some tomato, cabbage, broccoli, peppers. I start lettuce every two weeks, and shade/irrigate it to prevent bolting. I can have lettuce like this just about all year except dead of winter and I'm looking at building a hot bead...- dcopas78

Fall Hunt related: Covid-19 On The Rise <See Post #9 before posting>
Dad and I plan on going to Wyoming for our trip unless we can't travel because of quarantines. We will probably avoid staying in a hotel on the way out, pack food for the road, and pay at the pump for gas. On a side note, some of the data I'm hearing from this is staggering...- dcopas78

Raising some coturnix
Yeah this is somewhat a a concern around my house too. I have a kennel that I don't use any more, and I plan on putting the quail cages inside of it for an added layer of protection from the bigger predators. Hopefully my rat terriers will dissuade the rest!- dcopas78

Raising some coturnix
This is our first attempt at hatching and raising quail. We have raised egg and meat chickens for many years. I've been looking at raising quail for a while and finally made the investment in cages, a quail only incubator and equipment. My hope is to have 5-8 sets of breeders/egg producers...- dcopas78

Shirley Basin
I'd love to get that tag again. Wish we could have really hunted the unit when we had the tag back in 2017 but weather and a problem at home I had to return for made us change from being picky to filling our tags. -
Anthropocene
Actually, the contaminant in water that scares me the most are pharmaceuticals. I think they have a far greater chance of being detrimental to everyone's health. There is no natural mechanism that will remove hormones, synthetic pharmacological wastes, antibiotics, etc that pass through the...- dcopas78

Teddy Coming Down
I don't wish to derail the thread any more than it already has been, but I'd offer this. I posted a job two weeks ago with a starting pay of $18.25 with no requirements other than good work ethic and a high school diploma. They work a year, get their first license and pay jumps to $22/hr with...- dcopas78

Anthropocene
PFAS (so called "forever" chemicals) have became a huge topic in water and wastewater treatment over the last few years as more information about their potential to cause health problems is being discovered. All convenient things in life (plastic containers, teflon, clothing water-proofing...- dcopas78

Teddy Coming Down
I saw that. The town I work for (Georgetown, Ohio) is his boyhood home. The original house still stands and there are many fabulous statues and memorials to him. I hole no one decides to come out here to mess with those.- dcopas78

Anyone that thought they'd stop at civil war statues...whether or not you believe they have a valid reason for removing those statues...hasn't been paying attention to how people work anymore. Give someone long enough, and enough of the "woke" culture, and they'll eventually find something bad...- dcopas78

Wyoming results
Dad and I drew our 81-1 deer tags to go along with the 13-6 cow elk tags we drew last month. We didn't get the doe antelope tags we applied for, but hard to complain with us having the deer/cow tag in our pockets. Looking forward to this hunt. This makes the second time we have had this tag...- dcopas78

Friendly Badger - unless you're a mouse
My oldest boy loves the pics you all got BTW. They are one of my favorite things to watch. We don't have many here, although there was one ran over by a car not too far from me. I did get to watch a mink doing much the same as that badger one evening while deer hunting. He was tough on the...- dcopas78

Friendly Badger - unless you're a mouse
Like idiots, and not thinking in the heat of the moment, dad and I cornered the first one we ever saw out west to snap a few pics up close. If he would have decided to come after us, we'd have been screwed. Afterwards, and after we thought about what we had just done, we never felt more like...- dcopas78
