No matter how much I love you, I will never call a squirrel a Prairie Dog.View attachment 32494
A Prairie Dog called Alvin. Please study your rodents carefully and do not confuse them with chipmunks.
I was walking out in the backyard on Sunday and had a ruffed grouse take off about 10 feet from me. Nearly gave me a heart attack.Grouse hunting trip today. Seen 4 but couldn't get a shot. All within a 1/2 hour of my front door. I love this time of year because the colors are amazing. The little spot of snow to the left of the ATVs was a welcoming sight. It wont be long.....

Ha that's awesome. It can be a bit of a scare for a second if you aren't expecting it. Usually when I'm walking around in the woods I have a bad vision of a bear eating my face for lunch and then a Grouse blows out.....I was walking out in the backyard on Sunday and had a ruffed grouse take off about 10 feet from me.

This guy was across the street from the bro in laws a few years back. Small prairie town. I happened to have my telephoto with me.
