Had a female mountain bluebird fighting herself in the house windows for hours a day. I finally had to put an end to it. The new tenets are much better.

Dinks are biting
I’ve lost probably 50 saplings in the last 20 years to elk. They bust my irrigation heads too when drinking water. Tear rocks walls down climbing into landscaping, etc. My property looks like Auschwitz now with all the electric wire.
I don’t shoot elk on my property but know the temptation after coming home from elkless days to see a bull in my driveway.
Wouldn't ever kill a bull on my place. Illegal anyway. Cow, not a problem. Until recently short range weapons were the rule. I used a 12 gauge. mtmuley

A long, long time ago, my dad asked an old timer when the best time to get a deer was. His answer was, “I shoots them when I see ‘em.” I have always thought that was a pretty good philosophy, assuming legal (I am not sure the old timer adhered to that last part). I wouldn’t think twice about shooting a yard/field bull.
I shot a whitetail buck on my property years ago. Not going to do it again. The mountain ones are a lot more fun. mtmuley

Not taken on Sunday, but a day of work-appropriate fondling.

Historical GOLD!
I had an old poacher tell me once, “ the only month of the year that a deer doesn’t taste good, is the month you don’t shoot one “ !!

I got a nice picture of some trees Friday. Trees where 2 seconds before the 3 6x6 bulls I was trying to get ghosted. Hoping against hope for some moisture this summer and during spring antler growth time.

I actually burned a few pages of old aerial photos this week. They were highlighted and annotated a lot like yours.
How we worked out access before all the new eToys on our phones.

View off our deck. It’s hard to watch TV when my wife is getting up every 5 minutes to take pictures so I took one.

Today's winner!
Working for the Forest Service, at one point we had to move to a new office. The problem was that we had a 5000+ sq. ft. warehouse full of surveying and engineering stuff that had piled up from day one. Where we were moving had very little storage space for us to use so I was put in charge of cleaning out the old warehouse. Man, there was some great old obsolete equipment in there. Most in pristine condition. It all had to be auctioned off but a lot of the good stuff seemed to grow legs and walk out when nobody was looking. I was tempted myself, but I guess I am just too chicken.
Then a few years later I had major surgery and had to be on light duty for five months. I was tasked with digitizing all the old survey records from two national forests and loading it into a GIS database. I got lost for hours sometimes reading through all those old notes and records. getting hands on some real history is so much more fun than reading someone else's summarized version of history

Mild spring with a little rain makes quite a difference...
