    Here in Chicagoland, we have quite a few black squirrels. Way more common than the white ones. In fact I'm not sure I've ever seen a white squirrel.


    Horse throws a fit.

    Montana? I've never been farther west or north than Denver. But I have raised rabbits. Pass the BBQ sauce.

    Yes.

    We briefly raised rabbits too, until our dog ripped the cage open and had a 'bbq' of her own.

    Very wild food items we bbq'ed there, in order of my liking, deer, elk, black bear and moose.

    Yeah, we had those but we coveted the Stream Trout.

    <lights pipe and leans back in rocker>

    'Minds me O the time we went to Frozen Lake Canada. Back then it was a two hour hike in and out but son, those fish would bite a bare hook. Only took a few minutes to catch what we could carry out. lol

    Had the same happen in the pond, the blue gills were so feisty...a bare hook and I tossed them over my shoulder behind the dam. They were crowding out the bass and the cats. :brickwall:
