And tasty too! Wish I would have had a couple hours of free time to pick enough for pies. ::nod::

Here’s a few pics of the Chippewa flowage East of Hayward, Wi. The fishing was not so great but the time spent up there was great. The 6 little mallard ducks started out as 9 total . Before we left they were down to 3 ! Suspect the big Muskies need to eat to. The deer pic was the other morning here at home . Little Buck in velvet .

Nice set of photos, JP. A day on the water is hard to beat, fish or no fish. Nice boat, too!

Excellent photos, Paul. Looks like you had a great time! Is that a Muskrat in the second from last photo?

Edit: never mind; my question was answered over in the "what are you carrying right now" thread. Sure is a good-looking Muskrat! ::tu::

JP, Thanks for the superlative photos. I have often wondered what the survival rate of ducklings was. Now you have provided an example.


Paul, I have often thought that a Kukri style blade such as yours would make a fine camp knife.

Nice job, Treefarmer! When's supper? :lol:

Some pics off the game camera. Mama turkey's little ones are getting bigger, but it looks like she lost a couple. She had 8, and we are only seeing 6 on the pics now.

The water fountain in the front is very popular in this crazy heat. Lots of wildlife showing up for a drink. My wife is having to fill it up every morning.

Looks tasty, tree, fire up the grill! 😋


Cool shots, Unk! Hopefully some of those "peeps" will make it to maturity.

Great photos Mike. Yes, a true oasis for the animals. I especially enjoyed the Roadrunner inspecting the statuary.
