Lanternfly was giving me the finger from a target hanger post. Only four yards though.

Been shooting them with homemade shot loads out of a 38 when I can.

Good shooting. Hate those bastages. No sense of personal space.

Poaching will be yet another consequence of a porous border. I know fishing is already problematic but I foresee other game being impacted as well.

The illegals take and keep anything that gets on their hook. DNR doesn't have the man power to even bother with them these days.

The shot loads from a j frame are a lot safer as I can be less careful of muzzle orientation.

I'm not a great pistol shot. I thunb cocked the hammer on the cz so I'd actually get the fly. Anyone know an attractant that works? My 22 trainer rifle would get a workout.

That's the way they roll. Soon as they figure out how easy it is to take out Bambi look out.

Ask border ranchers about livestock losses. They already know how.

No pic but I was out at the landfill by Hap Baker range today and saw a mature bald eagle sitting on one of the large piles of dirt overlooking the landfill.

I saw one circling at Sandy Point this morning. It came down low over the parking lot where my wife was rolling along with her service dog. He was pretty big but a 75 pound lab was probably too big.

Saw a pair of adult Balds doing what seemed to be an early mating display, out over the Rock Creek area of Pasadena Thursday. Pretty cool to see.

I've seen NRP slow roll by, but rarely do they get out of the truck.

Best was NRP came up by boat, 50% of the people fishing grabbed their gear and ran for the parking lot. NRP checked those that stayed, lol.

Why bother? Do they even show up in court, or is it just another form of catch and release?

First time I've seen these "hillblly mangos" (PawPaw fruit). Delicious.

I saw coyote this morning through kitchen window, it is in Montgomery Village.

Definitely not .45 cal and I'm pretty sure that they aren't 3% antimony, but I spotted this clump of sweet 'schrooms while taking the dog for a walk this morning.
