This evening we decided to pick a seat which offers in theory a good opportunity for pigs. We don’t have to be up super early in the morning tomorrow so we decided to sit a little longer. The wind was good and everything seemed good for for the hunt. As is sometimes the case, it…

Back to the ravine today, there has been a fair amount of activity here the past few times we have been out. It’s crazy loud in the woods tonight the birds are chirping like crazy. It was a fairly uneventful night. Watched a Mouse buzzard stare at the field for a while looking for a…
