Feb / March .... won't be long till we are chasing turkeys !
Emptied the camera tonight , with pic's from Feb / March ...
We had fun in the snow at the end of the season ...
( Mikey B. cuts trails at the back of my property with his FJ )
Rain has taken the snow down and I can drive to the back of my property again ...
( My truck is looking good again after fix up from last months deer collision )
When I walk my property boundry ... it is obvious where the turkeys have been ...
But they are still real spooky and stay way ahead of me in the bush ...
( We have seen them close to the house in large numbers , but haven't got the camera on them , before they spook off )
Bump into the odd racoon waking up now that the warm weather is here ...
My Tom " Gus " patrols the back yard ... keeping his girlfriend close by .
The deer are back in numbers now that the snow has melted showing some decent corn stubble , in the field behind my shop ... We counted 32 last Thursday night ... I got a quick snap shot of a few with my pocket camera ... They walked out from the East bush while we were having supper .
Talked with chris4570 and Pyd picked me up a dozen Blood Trail Ales for the bar
I got invited again ( 2nd time for me ) , to the anual Petersen Clan " Wild Game dinner "
( We had everything ... deer/moose/grouse/pheasant/duck/geese/rabbit/squirell etc. )
Court P's grandfather is 92 , and still gets out to hunt with with the family !
Pretty quiet , the first half of the meal , as everyone " chows down " on the wild treats !
A few generations of Petersen's in this picture ...
( No the young lad wasn't drinking ... just posing with a wine bottle ! )
Of course , now that Spring is here ... I'm " gear checking " and polish up my Stoger M2000 in preperation for the Spring Turkey season ... and my Savage 93 17HMR ( ready for some ground hogs ! )
Man that 17 HMR cartridge looks wicked !
A little local scouting and I bump into this loner ...
The spring thaw uncovers , lots of tastey treats for the misc critters in the area ..
Tundra Swans , drop by on their scheduled migration ...
Geese are pairing up everywhere ...
Still some groups along the river ...
The sun broke thru " big time " today ... I got a few nice shots of "Gus " as the sun dropped in the West after work tonight ...
Won't be long before we are chasing the " bearded birds " .... Good luck to all that venture out ! ... May you find yourself in the bush , at the peak of the strut this spring , and the peak of the rut this fall ! ... Hunt safe , have fun , and take lots of pictures !

Great to see another installment of your photo-posts, R.J.!
You didn't help the cabin fever much though.... just getting more and more antsy for time in the woods!
