Animal ques to make you a better hunter

Sittin around on the farm watchin it pour buckets and rising creeks gives a fellar time to think. Earlier this season I opened up a persimmon seed and there was a spoon in the center meaning a wet winter in my area and so far it has been right. So nature gives us all kinds of information if we know how to hear it. So some of yall woodsmen let us know what wispered information that comes from other animals that you use to hunt. For example if I am moving through the woods or on a stand and I hear a squirel barking off in the distance it usually means a larger anmial approaching or small birds going nuts can mean a bobcat or coyote is approaching.

Tons of acorns everywhere...There is going to be a LONG COLD winter ahead. It's Mother Nature's way of fattening up the animals for it.
Very few acorns means just the opposite. Just look at the last 2 years, and they both are an example of what I just said.

I like it when deer rat each other out. You're watching a doe and she starts looking intently in a direction other than at me ... often it is another deer.

If the cows are all laying down, it's likely the deer are, too.

I once heard a bunch of blue jays really going nuts. Went over to check out what was going on and found a hog nose snake with a baby rabbit almost completely down his throat, just the back legs hanging out. Never will forget that, that was over 30 years ago.

Well, we had tons of acorns where I hunted this year Mike and our winter was a sissy! One of the cues I pay attention to here is "When the robins start chirping near sunset, deer activity is about to pickup!"

Here's one the old timer Ozark spring turkey hunters go by. As the redbuds come into bloom, the gobblers are fighting for dominance. When the dogwoods bloom, the gobblers are breeding the hens.
