Well, they came and cut down the last bird hunting tree in my yard. The storm took one and the landlord had this last one butchered up and removed since it is a liability. These old pines were over 40 years old and got me many-a-confirmed kills.
It's not all bad though. The birds I hunt are opportunists and one came in and was pecking through the saw dust not more than an hour after the tree men left. I got the .22 and put the hammer down on him. It caught it right through the breast meat, and the bird stood for a moment before falling dead. The vitals were punctured, but it destroyed the entire sternum and probably sent a shock wave through that bird that stopped its heart. Taking a bear cub .22 at 7 yards will do that. Dinner for me tonight....again. |
