Nice Safety meeting.... Thanks for that.Just thought I'd share this picture with all of you gentleman! This a the top of a rotten snag that naturally blew out in a wind storm and stuck in the ground upsidedown! However, I've seen this happen many many times! Especially when felling a snag and the top catches a limb of another tree in tight corridors during the fall of these these lovely lovely widow makers!This is just one of many reasons when cutting in our back yards, or on an industrial level, and everything in between! Why we must...
Cut safe, stay sharp, and be aware!View attachment 1013993View attachment 1013993

Hmmmm. I've been trying to post some trail cam pictures since last night, and I keep getting this image. Not sure what's going on, but the site won't let me post my pictures all of the sudden. Haven't had this problem on here before. Any ideas?
No idea.
I've had a problem posting pics from the cloud that are older, newer ones and photos right off my phone no problem, same with screen shots when I'm on the computer.

Hmmm, maybe it's a "cloud" issue. I don't even want to use the damned thing. But somehow my computer is set up to automatically store crap in a "cloud". Damn technology. I don't want my stuff stored in some imaginary storage space that can be hacked by some geek in his mom's basement. I bought a computer with 1T of storage just for that reason, but I'm too damn dumb to be able to figure out how to change it from storing stuff in the cloud, to right on my own hard drive! I'll try posting the pics from my phone and see if that works.
That's the neighbors barn that's in the photo he didn't fair so well there was roof damage to my FIL but nothing like the neighbor the shingles of his that were laying on the ground looked like they were high nailed to me hopefully the insurance takes care of it for him here's a photo of his roof.

Okay, let's see if posting pics from my phone works. I didn't transfer them all to my phone, but the bear and cat are in here. So, the picture quality is terrible on the cat pics. I think it was raining that night. But what do you guys think, bobcat or mountain lion? And another bear. We've got apple trees and are overrun with raspberries, so I think that's what keeps the bear coming around.

I couldn't post all of the pics, because most of them are on my computer and not my phone, and in case you've noticed to the last few posts, for some reason, I'm having trouble posting pics on here from my computer now. But in the three weeks since I last pulled memory cards, I got bear (many, many) deer, coyote, skunk, porcupine, turkey, Sandhill Cranes, and whatever that cat is. Pretty diverse population for just a couple of weeks of being out.
I can see those just fine, can I transfer some pics to your phone for you to upload
No idea, it just started happening to me last week. I'm not a techie, but I can do some great searches and figure things out, but I find it's best to ask a teenager
.Makes you want to cuddle up with your gun at night doesn't it lol.
That bear is really liking the new walking trails, glad his tax dollars are finally having a positive effect
.Looks like a cat to me, what kind, no idea, but I wouldn't want to have any issues with it.

Ya, I know. But I just wasn't sure that it has/had a short tail. I thought that it's tail may have been hanging down right behind it's hind left leg. I'd rather it NOT be a mountain lion anyway. Those effers actually stalk people sometimes, and I wouldn't want it to get me before I could pull out an equalizer! LOL.
I agree, Bobcat, not a Mtn Lion, tail is too short.
Linx is basically a Large bobcat. we have them here.
Blue berries , blackberries & wild strawberries will draw Black bear like mad brother . Remember as a kid loved to help my mother pick berries , not so much for the fresh pies out of the oven the next few days , but for the bear sightings almost every time out . We had a heavy bear population in our area of Northern Ontario in the mid 60's . Had an outfitter who had seasonal customers who came every spring & fall from Grand Rapids , Ypsilanti & Houghton Lake to hunt our property seasonally . The outfitter paid my father so much to set up blinds on our private property of 400 acres . Many times I would head out with the tractor to bring the bears out to be processed in our barn for the customers . It was a cool experience for a young teenager lol. One customer from Battle Creek Michigan brought up various leather goods belts , hunting gloves from either Remington or Winchester as gifts for helping retrieve the game lol.
My "project gun" came in today, but I'm still waiting on the barrel.
My FFL guy has several dead Ash trees he wants me to take down. He lives kinda close to my Daughter, so she will appreciate the firewood. Most of them look solid, but one has a branch that will likely fall when it is cut, will have to watch out for that.
