Bitterroot Turkeys
Sone were brazen enough to let me know when the bird feeder was empty. Your chances of being murdered by a turkey are slim but not zero.- Kaitum

Bitterroot Turkeys
Some Bitterroot yard birds. My dog had to watch them invade his yard daily so I'd let him retrieve one or two a year for his enjoyment.- Kaitum

How to pick a spot to get dropped off for a caribou hunt?
Your air taxi will tell you where they can land. They know their usual spots and depending on the plane and gear configuration they'll know if they can get into a spot they don't typically land in. Generally when I hunted caribou the river corridors seemed to funnel herds and had plenty of...- Kaitum

What's on the smoker today?
Carnitas. Perhaps not the traditional way they're cooked but the smoker is a convenient way to cook without warming the house on a hot day.- Kaitum

How heavy are your day packs?
I had that same pack. It held my knife, a box of Remington Corelokts, maybe a grunt tube, and a snickers bar. You could track my movements from the previous year where the line of beggarticks cropped up in a meandering fashion.- Kaitum

Seizures in dogs
I appreciate the feedback. When he had his first seizure I was in the middle of transitioning to a different brand of food. I've switched back to his old food. Heat was something I considered but it wasn't especially hot those days and he wasn't running around much. I have an appointment with a...- Kaitum

Seizures in dogs
My 3.5 yr old lab started having seizures this week. He's active, a normal weight, and otherwise a healthy dog. I know there are dozens of things that can cause a seizure. Blood work after the first one was normal. After the next one I figured I'd better seek out a specialist clinic and see if...- Kaitum

Dog to Alaska
A few months after I moved to AK, I flew my dog up via air cargo with Delta. I felt bad for putting her through that but it was about the quickest option. When I took the ferry, pets did have to stay in the vehicle. The ferry had a pet call three times a day where you were allowed to let your...- Kaitum

Transplanting wild shrubs
Someone asked for pictures. Pollinators along the walkway: penstemon (variety unknown), beebalm, autumn sage (Salvia spp.), dianthus, chocolate flowers, another autumn sage, Echinacea, butterfly milkweed, and another type of salvia. It's about the only greenery I have right now and the rabbits...- Kaitum

Transplanting wild shrubs
I'm in the middle of replacing my dead Bermuda grass lawn with xeriscaping using plants native to the area. I'm in a transition area between desert and forest. What I've found is if it survives as a native in this area, its root system is substantial. Often far deeper than I can dig in the...- Kaitum
