Other than maybe the ground hogs... I can pretty much see that from my
living room window.
Except the rabbits get shot at using a BB gun, little bastards where
munching on my lettuce growing in the garden, so out come the co2
pistol, hit the little sucker about 3 times, first he was munching,
second two shots he was on the run, I just went into rapid fire mode,
to make his course corrections for him, plus I got a ugly deer that
wonders into the yard, this is one ugly doe too, face like a moose
almost... wonder if a moose raped its momma or something.
Hit one big bunny with a pellet gun last year... them little things
can really jump high...
Plus at night the view of the heavens is awesome.... eh
Oh where about you at ? eh...
I am in the South Central area of the U.P. eh...
eh... hear that alot.. eh..
