A pair of eagles on the homestead with one snacking on an elk ear. A couple nights ago they were both sitting in a tree watching a younger one chow down. A bit long winded video but I enjoyed watching them.

Getting near the end of the antlerless elk season so I was happy to get it done this morning. Rifle is a cheap Savage 270 and the 130 grain Accubond did the trick. Not the best shot but I was able to hit one lung and it went a couple of hundred yards before piling up next to the shooting bench...

Been a while since I checked the sd card.

Passing through

I was happy to find this new in the box shooting bench for cheap on local Market Place. I haven’t shot off of it yet but it felt pretty solid when I got it put together and set up. Will make a good one for moving around after the ground squirrels.

They’re back.

Elk getting an afternoon snack.

Got a pic on the trail cam of one cougar and put the drone in the air to see if I could catch it in the open. I wasn’t expecting to see what I saw. Video not great as things were happening quick and I had to maintain altitude to clear the power lines. I think this is the mother and two kittens...

The elk spent the afternoon on the homestead so I flew the drone up to see how the herd is doing. Just the ladies and the littles but they all look like they’re doing well. I always like to see the calves. Between my place and the neighbor’s place there are at least 4 cougars hanging around and...

I was surprised to see this cat wandering around in the middle of the afternoon. I’m thinking it looks a bit skinny so probably looking for an easy meal.

Game cam shots on the homestead.

Quite a few calves in the homestead herd this year. I always like to see them on the game cameras.

I didn’t want to get the drone too close to this many birds so the quality isn’t good but does give some idea of all of the birds and critters after an easy meal following the ships upstream as they churn the little fish to the surface with their propellers.

I’d purchased an RCBS Rapid Acquisition Shooting System (RASS) some time back and used it mostly for plinking at ground squirrels with air rifles. They are no longer made and hard to find but the other day I stumbled upon one for sale on the local Marketplace and it was available at a good...

I was doing a little varmint control (or trying to). After grabbing a flashlight in the house, I came out and this one was no where to be found.

Nasty weather here today but caught the elk in the field between rains squalls. I got the drone in the air for a short flight. Stayed away from them with the drone and they paid more attention to the car out on the highway more than they did the drone. Bulls get shot out of this bunch every...

Loaded up some 100 grain Ballistic Tips for the 6.5 Grendel. Still using a stash of bullets I purchased a few years back for $2.50 a box from a Walmart close out sale.

I tried out the 12X Sig Zulu 6 image stabilizing binoculars and am quite impressed with how well they work. I rolled the dice on preowned 16X and 20X and they arrived in great shape. The low light performance isn’t the greatest and a smaller field of view are the drawbacks but they sure are a...

Was curious how the birds would react as I brought the drone down for a look while they cleaned up the possum I got last night.

Eliminated this possum last night. 115 grain 9mm plated bullet got the job done as it only got to where it went out of sight.
