Congrat's to you and the young Miss Mars! Nice photos! I might as well fess up...I messed up on a BIG 'un a couple of days ago. I got the scope centered on him while he was looking dead at me, but I hesitated to shoot in case he bolted because I didn't want to run the risk of losing him in the thick stuff. I hesitated instead of pulling the trigger and yep, he bolted a second later. Tall ten point! I might have had a touch of buck-fever that got to me, but I just couldn't make myself pull that trigger in time. Then yesterday, I watched a doe pop her head up on the edge of a thick oak flat. It was a long shot and I centered the cross-hairs on her neck and didn't hesitate....in fact, I punched the trigger and sprayed her with a nice dusting of oak bark! She ran across a wide palmetto flat and crossed a fence. I knew it was a clean miss, but looked or blood just to be sure and found none. Congrat's again Mars!

Well I finally got some meat for the freezer with a good sized doe. Arm did not hurt when I shot, but the shoulder did, I guess from all the soreness in it from rehab. Anyway, got some fresh venison!

You might have something there! Question for youse guys; Found a plastic bag tied in a knot this morning with two dead parakeets in it. One normal green and yellow bird and one white with blue tail and belly. Both freshly dead without a mark on either. White one still had it's eyes open. Any symbology you guys can think of? Somebody trying to send me a message? Like my future Ex who if she keeps on messing with me I just may make myself a widower rather than divorcee X(3)! Anyway I left her a message that accused her of being behind it.

Report it to the authorities. If she's sending a message, get it recorded for future use in case you need it in court. Cops might trace the birds to a pet store in the area and you'll know for sure who's behind it. Don't know what it could mean, but you might look up some of that Phillipinian voodoo stuff and see if your life has just been threatened. Or...it might have been a peace offering....parakeet gravy over a bed of wild rice might be a tasty So. Pacific treat.

Now the first wife was Filipina, not the current one! I think I remember a gangster movie where somebody was sent a dead canary, for singing/ {stool pigeon). Of course the moron mentality of the people she works with might have simply gotten the wrong birds.

Parakeets are really Budgie Birds in their home country of Australia.I would seriously doubt it would be a "voodoo" type thing for that reason.The closest thing I kind find is a "let the feathers fall where they may" type deal.

If the offending party wasn't smart enough to remove it, parakeets (budgerigars) are usually banded, around the leg in this country, with identifying markings to identify date of fledging and the breeder from which they came. It looks like a little anodized aluminum band with a serial number on it. Are you sure they weren't dead lovebirds? I would be quite concerned if it was a dozen dead red roses sent to you...I did that to a gal once...so I know what that means! ;D

Nope dead parakeets. Hmmmmm I guess technically they are song birds and they do talk! Maybe it is a signal that I shouldn't rat on her for taking drugs out of the prison! Well too late cause I'm calling the Sheriff tomorrow and filling them in. Oh yeah, you guys didn't know about that. I found a package of scrips with the prison label on them in one of her drawers. Now about those dead roses....

Gee whiz! I take off for a couple of days and all heck breaks loose. ;D Seriously though, I would most definatly be getting ahold of the athorities. That sounds scary as sh*t!!! Marty got a doe on Saturday of youth season. Had it skinned, bagged and in the frying pan before I was even awake. Oh yeah.....Monday is moving day. I'd better get back to checking rental rates on a trailer. Later gators.

Had a Young doe come by really hoofing it, not a minute later some drop off dogs hot on her trail. talked with county dog catcher, he said he can't take care of all loose dogs, for me to use my own judgment. Paws hope you catch the doe, and about the other a Garlic neckless, will help.

Went over to the house this morning. WOW!! Looks like a big herd spent the night right at our front door. Even had muddy hoof prints on the threshold. Yep! That yard is most definitely being seeded with food plot mix. There's a little church the next hollow down from us and it appears that the cemetery is roost for a flock of turkey. Counted around 50 either walking around or perched on the tombstones. Wonder if the preacher needs somebody to help care of that cemetery??
