Don't think I find a gnawed deer leg that interesting, in fact its a little macabre IMO. The significance was its being right outside the gate yesterday and gone this morning. Big cat chew toy?

Another hunting adventure with the pride and a search and rescue for Early. Considering the leg picture, they both flopped down in an adrenaline crash after making it to safety.

Super nice Sunday, warm and sunny during the day and some precipitation after dusk.   The seed buddies i planted the previous week will be glad for the relief.

These are all over the place but they're not wild, necessarily. - nuances determine balance it seems.

Beyond Rediculous you say? indeed, i Know.  Day 93

Gardening, dropping trees limbing and then off to the woods for me.  I count around 8 turkey - tom's, jakes, jennys and hens,  2 elk and the metal head double pedal base kick of birds - the ruffed grouse.  All in all lots of fresh air and I'll bet I sleep like the dead tonight.

It's that time and the great morel search is on. Get them before the deer, elk and everything else does.

Strange looking golf ball shroom. Growing on a ground squirrel hotel. Maybe something about their ecology encouraged it to grow there.

Nope, not chaga.  Chaga's only on birch trees and looks like a black lava rock bubbling out of the side of the tree.

Nice centipede? in that last pic!

Oh nice, that's the kind of primary clues that i can grab onto about the birch trees.  I've only seen them as something that looked like instant death foam growing out of a tree as well but there's a few pics of chaga on a search that make this one look like a dusty old ancient one.   I actually did do a little research before I speculated tho.  If one does a very quick image search for "chaga" you'll see a much more vibrant version among the instant death looking, apparently true chaga.  Funny the stuff above it on the same tree looks closer to the actual thing.

Centipede eh i hope not.. heh they kinda freak me out.  I'm a much bigger fan of the millipede but I didn't accost it to find out.  Just appreciated the interesting gold high-lights among the fungus.

Brk day 95

Dragged some brush piles around like a goat in the A.M. and got some time/reacquainted with the MIG welder in the afternoon working on a repair.  Cherry on the cake was sepper brosky Jeff sharing some of his hamburger bounty with all us boots, good dude that guy.  Unlike those things which IMO have to be personally experienced to appreciate - here's a few more pictures of nature.

They all look the same at a level and then you realize you have to look under, over and within.

If a picture says a thousand words and attention spans are around 8 seconds than the average person must be a really fast reader but i stopped listening at magenta.
