  • Another nature story

    Still seeing things I have never seen before. Was checking a pasture & saw 2 crows across a field. Very common. Then I saw one of them hop up and saw a small animal either chasing it or playing with. Got the binoculars out & it was a cottontail. It made several runs at this crow. I thought it was playing with it, which in itself would be interesting. But then the second crow flew over by them & grabbed something off the ground. It was a baby rabbit. So the rabbit was defending & trying to save the baby. I watched this battle for several minutes and the big rabbit finally made it to the trees & brush. I think the baby did to because I never saw the crows fly off with it even though they tried hard. Anyhow, something else in nature I had never seen or known would happen. Didn’t know crows would go after small animals and sure didn’t know the battle a rabbit would put up.

    Oh, and the turkeys are putting on a show today too. Lots of strutting and gobbling going on.

          Crows will "steal" golf balls and drop them from the air to crack them.

            I'm going to start assuming that is what happens to any golf ball I can't find. Unless I hit it in the water. Then I will assume a turtle got it.

                I am not ashamed to admit that I am not that good a golfer. The secret is to not get frustrated about it and just have fun. Which is exactly what I do. I don't care if I shoot 100. That just means I got to hit the ball more.

                  Crows would have been run off immediately or shot sooner if i had a gun. Hate those black bastids.

                    Crows about the same as pigs for me. If I have the 22 with me, they get shot.
