Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

That looks like it. I'm in the southwest corner of Missouri so I'm the uncommon range. . but still plausible.


No That was the strange thing Also. I didn't see any blood or anything. It was dirty like maybe the dogs rolled it around after it died? All I can guess is maybe it was just migrating and was old and tired and just died. It's been in the 20s at night lately.


The deer was was nice too :gig
I was gonna ask him if he was sure it was the deer you were talking about ..:lau
 
Finally just solved a mystery :old
Couldn't figure out what was going on at the wild bird feeder. I would fill it up with sunflower seeds and of course it was getting visited pretty heavily with our unusually cold (for this time of year) weather, but I would check it when I went out at dark to lock the chooks in and it would still be about half full. First light in the morning I look out and it's empty! :confused: (It's hung high in the tree so the deer and turkeys can't get into it.) It's been dark here now for well over an hour so I decided to shine my flashlight on the feeder and I caught the culprits.
A cute pair of flying squirrels! Little stinkers, should have known. I had the same problem on a different feeder several years ago. There is so much seed disappearing they are either filling an entire hollow tree or there are more then just these two bandits.:rolleyes: Last time I found a pair had taken over one of our bird houses and had it stuffed full of chicken feathers and overflowing with seeds :lau
I love the like sugar gliders.... They show up all over my game cameras soon as it gets dark

I didn't know there was anywhere that seagulls weren't common..... They're a pest here along with Canada Geese.
Years ago I remember they was a ton of them on my neighbors roof him out there drunk blasting them with a shotgun.
Don't think he did his roof any good....:gig

Kind miss Dave .... He would be out there 3a.m. in his BVDs on his back deck blasting raccoons off his bird feeder.... Usually half in the bag.
.....:lau
Yeah that old drunk was pretty funny..... Hard worker too.... He'd be out first thing in the morning in his robe cutting grass.... Budweiser in his hand.

RIP ...... Dave Laudin...... One of the old timers
