    Any Birders here?

    Yes, the hammering on hard surfaces is exactly that, a mating call. Want him to quit, you will have to either shoot him or get him a date.

    I am lighter than what I am made of, and about 90% of me remains unseen. What am I?

    More CWD NE ND

    To be clear, there's nothing in the article that says anything about these guys eating squirrels, much less squirrel brains. Neither does it say they consumed venison from a deer that was known to have CWD. What the article does say is "In 2022, a 72-year-old man with a history of consuming...

    1969 Evinrude 25 sportster

    You misspelled frustrating. Older boat motors are easy to get to run, not so easy when it comes to getting them to run as intended. They just always seemed to have their own little quirks. As far as the milky appearance of oil coming from the exhaust, unburned oil is not unusual but the milky...

    Baltimore bridge collapse

    I see now where the ship's owner is trying to get those who shipped cargo on the doomed passage to pay a share of any costs associated with salvage. I'd be unhappy if my taxi driver wanted me to pay for his accident. Which, by the way is possible/expected in some countries.

    Outdoor Playsets

    IMHE, these playsets are rarely used as often as the parents who paid for them were expecting. Not saying your kids won't, but I know of several that simply sat unused for the most part.

    More CWD NE ND

    Since CJD affects about 500 people a year in the United States, what are the odds that two friends would randomly develop CJD? I am going to guess it's not zero, but I am also going to surmise the chances of two friends randomly developing CJD are not very high. Remember, we have something...

    Riddle Me This.....

    The actual answer should be air. Now, how you get the air into the barrel is the big question. Holes work, as would a balloon of sufficient size tied to the bottom of the barrel.

    Elk & Moose lottery complete

    Much less so than when my kids first had a rifle tag at 11 and 12 yrs old. They each had several seasons/days in the field with me before they got their first tags. Now they are 16 and 18 and it looks like it will be a post-college effort on those tags. Those early years were some of the best...

    Elk & Moose lottery complete

    Yeah, I definitely understand that frustration. I've been there myself over the years. I suppose I'm around 25 consecutive years into the moose applications, and before that I was 20 on/off years into elk applications. I haven't yet had my kids apply for any of the big 3. I want them to...

    Elk & Moose lottery complete

    I had an elk tag in 2005, and now 19 years later I will be in the field looking for bullwinkle this fall. Now that my lucky ass is out of both the moose and elk lotteries, that should help some of the rest of you in the coming years!

    Montana Train Derailment

    Flooding out along the upper Yellowstone? Ehh, not so much: The above peak equals roughly 2,000 CFS at the peak, which is WELL below flooding. Because, like us, they have been much warmer than normal this winter, the water levels are slightly above normal for this period, but that's only...

    Elk & Moose lottery complete

    Probably not the system so much as there just aren't enough animals. How many people apply for elk and or moose tags every year, around 10,000-14,000? With just a few hundred tags, the "average" person would draw one every 10,000/300, or roughly every 33 years. Yes, I am SWAG'ing the numbers...
