Thanks G.
When a guy wanted a high end Bike and Cross-Country ski shop added it to his hardware store here..I jumped on it.
But in spare time worked the whole store.....including a lady wanting to return a bird feeder that she said should be called a "Squirrel feeder" instead
I think we sold as many "Squirrel Guards" as feeders!! I see some Amazing leaps almost every day on the dead trees in the beaver pond when they want to get to the other side!
Learned why 20 yrs ago, only red squirrels here...and now only Grays....Grays carry a virus that doesn't affect them, but kill most Reds:(
Also can digest green acorns, which Reds can't..so not enough of a major food source for the Reds on Mast years on our White Oaks.
Learn something new every day.
Guess I'll have to search for the type of East European "Owl" next(surprised I never did).
Thanks Joe...Kinda lucked out on this one for an "experiment" seeing If I can get as good a one for myself may not be so easy....BUT now looking at models differently.
Making Boundaries, and then sizing model so it falls off the shape of a branch has me searching new models, and taking closer looks at my bought models for sections that MAY look good.
Interesting...which is GOOD for me
Thanks Dan...The check is in the mail:)
ALWAYS planned my river trips(and then fishing trips with Dad) for as soon as ice was out....fishing isn't that hot, but water levels are so high Even the Maine Guides hadn't tried some of the streams:) REFUSED to go fishing with Dad in the North Woods the last two weeks of May, and the first two of April....I hate the little suckers!!
Don't even have the decency to make a Stab IN YA....just CHEW a hole/add anti-coagulant/ and Keep chewing...they taste AWFUL too!!
May have to inspect some family woodpiles for this Squirrel....Thinking if I can find a 2 year old Maple branch where a small cutoff branch has rotted into the core a little on a small unsplit piece....
Putting his head just below the rotten section May work?
Stuff like this keeps me going:)

Hey Dan, what kind of Owl? I'll make you a Bloodwood key fob:)
