Wildlife Everywhere!

Those of you who know us are well aware of the fact that we love seeing wildlife in their natural habitat. Living out here in the country enables us to see some form or another of our wild friends every day. Don't get me wrong, it's not everyday we see a coyote or turkey, but we can pretty much guarantee that we will see deer, chipmunks, squirrels and colorful birds every day of the year.

Here are a few pictures of some of those scenes. The hunter with the turkey is a friend of ours from Iowa. Kirk bagged the turkey after only ten minutes in our woods. In fact he had three "toms" to choose from as they all showed up at the same time while he was calling.








The coyote picture shows the mount while we were still working on it in the workshop. It turned out pretty good and is now mounted in our living room. After all, who doesn't have at least one "brush dog" in their home?

Tune in again soon for another edition of "Now What Are They Doing?"

Bob....I was interested in your comment about the coyote. Do you do your own mounting?

I wish we could take credit for the mounting..but we can't. Someone else does the "stuffing" and then we make the mount look good. Bob
