I love small game hunting. I went for awhile today. With the snow melt off, I found a blunt tipped carbon from last week's escapee:)

I got out for a couple hours this afternoon. The woods were very quiet. I was trying for a black phase Abert's Sqirrel for flytying supplies. I found some fresh Abert's cuttings but no squirrel. I did get a shot at a Red Squirrel.. but I missed...3 times.

The rain did not let up---so we bagged it for that day.  Went this AM---walked a lot just at the snow line.  Saw one Valley quail flying---no opportunities for squirrels.  Pretty day---killed a couple of stumps.

Monday, there was a break between storms.  Three of  us spent the morning walking down here in the valley, as there was much snow in the foothills.  Ground so soggy that nearly every shot with a Judo required a wash in the nearest puddle.  Pretty day, lots of waterfowl on the seasonal ponds, and a great blue heron that scared the snick outa my brother when he surprised it from the grass.

Other then deer season I need every excuse possible to get out in the woods to shoot. You bet I'm out there trying for small game. I also put my efforts toward coyotes since I can hunt them 365 here in PA.

How small they gotta be?  This is my favorite hunting after deer season!

I have loosed a few arrows at some tree rats and a rabbit or two but have not been able to put any in the freezer yet.

Now that the Winter Jersey season is winding down, I'll be out flinging wood at squirrels and rabbits. We have the Bunny Hunt Feb 17th but I'll be out early mornings stumpin and squirrel chasing til the end of Feb.

Me and Hucklebeagle (Huckleberry, my yellow Lab) get after the rabbits at least several days a week. The rabbit population is way up this year in my neck of the woods. Hopefully he hasn't forgot that he's a bird dog too.

How can you tell Albert's cuttings from any other ?  I have never seen an Albert's except in photos.

Our group managed to get out and chase some bunnies last weekend. Here is me on the left with Two Hats. Two very happy Wabbit Hunters!
