Since covid rats are getting bolder, less traffic and pressure. Coming out in broad daylight as if to mock me, so I blasted it with a Crossman pump pellet pistol. Sweet gun and cheap if you don't know them check them out. Very handy. And a Schrade.

That's the one, got mine about 20 yrs ago, was one of the best $45 I ever spent. Fired thousands of rounds and the air never leaks and shoots like it was new. I've had a Crossman pump rifle and pistol and they were worth more than I paid. They last decades too.

Thanks Quick, yeah it's a capable pellet gun. I shoot about 35-40 feet away from the rats if I see one on the ground under the bird feeder. 5-6 pumps is all needed. They are getting more brazen and don't even run anymore when they hear the door open. I can tell their behavior has changed and they seem to be getting bigger. This one was about as big as the grey squirrels around here and noticabley bigger than the average one I catch in traps. Never used to see them mid day, usually at dusk. Now any time of day.

Iman, I don't know if you will want to take the time, but you might consider tracking down a State biologist's phone number explaining the behavioral changes you are observing. He might have some ideas as to the causes. I've made that call in another state concerning bird populations; it was a worthwhile call.

Ha ha ha, that's a good one. ::rotflol:: Nope. It was just in my pocket so I threw it in the shot. I just bag 'em and garbage can them.

Very nice photo of that canoe, Charlie.

Nice Case: nicely photographed, Chris.

Beautiful knives and great photography in that first photo, Roofsc. Photo number three is my favorite!

Cool shot Squach. And those Canoe scales are cool too, looks very 3D to me, like it you could reach down in, like each ring goes down lower. Very interesting pattern and trick on the eye. What do they call that scale? Nice one.
