RG ^5 thats quality time with good people sharingdacker i know how to tell by sound but how do you idenify a barred owl from a screech owl
I’ll tel you what else hunting is about....friendship.I helped my neighbor butcher his massive deer this afternoon. It was nice and cool and we got more meat off that buck than I’ve ever seen off any deer. The neck alone weighed 25 lb....maybe more. He gifted me with two of the 6 blackstrap chunks, 4” dia x 12” long ( biggest I’ve ever seen) , a few packages of steaks, the tenderloins and several packages out nicely trimmed stew meat.We sat at my house and had a cocktail when we were done. A day well spent in friendship. Hope he gets a couple more.Rg
owls, seen a lot over years have had them come in while calling for turkeys!to see them , silent and scary at same time You are correct - didn't hear him come in and he was only 20 yds or so away - didn't hear him leave either. He flew to another branch a little closer, then next time I looked over he was gone. Every once in a while when he looked away I did a little mouse squeak and his head would whip around ....
