    I am not up to speed but I was thinking of posting interesting things I built over the years.

    For the most out of odds and ends and scrap.

    One of two that we got today, I didn't see the other one, it went in a different truck. I think we're done for the year, time to leave the rest for seed. :oops:

    The coyotes near me or what's left of them are mange infested and pretty skinny. Those could almost pass for a family pet. :notsure:

    Those were on clearance here, but only like 20%, which wasn’t worth it. From what I hear, they are essentially a shotgun effect… which may require some practice and tweaking to get some useful accuracy. My info could also be horribly inaccurate, like what I heard. :notsure:

    Shotgun pattern yes, but it’s also got a laser (sighted it in yesterday!). Cheapest price I’ve seen them so far in a couple of years. We’ve got these orange/red wasps that you can get somewhat close to, I’m working on making them extinct on my property.

    We had a couple of years of really bad mange, every coyote we shot had it. It's run it's course now, every one this year has been great.

    Here's one from a couple of years ago. :eek:

    We had a brief mention a while back about the weinermobile having its catalytic converter stolen… well I saw this one locally. They assured me that this wasn’t the one. I got the picture also because of the trivia board out front.

    Well fellers, here is a question for the evening:

    cartoon-illustration-of-speech-bubble-with-question-mark-free-vector.jpg

    I was at my desk at the garage (working on taxes :pout:) and heard an unusual noise :confused:, the garage is made of block by the way.

    I went outside and found two sections of trees, one right behind the garage, the other about 250 feet away -- packed with birds, hundreds and hundreds of birds.

    A bit spooked, (queue the Alfred Hitchcock image here)

    hitchcock-and-the-birds-corbis-large.jpg

    I fetched a pair of binoculars -- every one of the damn things was looking right at me :eek:.
    Holy $hit Batman!!


    211d79f083d23ec87a7fa1331a76bd2c.jpg

    Seeing as I was the only thing moving anywhere nearby and a fairly large, slow target too... I got the hell back in the garage.

    istockphoto-525037826-612x612.jpg

    They were fairly large, kind of bulky looking, more chunky that tall it seemed and all black/dark, I didn't see any color on any of them.

    I'm no Sportsman, the only birds I can identify are Seagulls, Robins & Hummingbirds -- maybe Crows. These birds were tweeting/shrieking not the "caw, caw" noise I associate with Crows (from the movies that is) :notsure:.

    No pictures as it would be a waste of time with my old phone... and I wasn't inclined to hang about outside at that particular moment either.

    They disappeared later -- opinions?? :confused::confused:
