chuck123wapati Report post Posted April 7, 2023 Did you know you could feed hawks with bread crumbs? We have been putting out our stale bread for the finches but the squirrels took over. Now it appears the hawks are back for the summer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tsunkasapa Report post Posted April 7, 2023 We feed ravens and bald eagles. We get meat scraps and fat from a butcher for our sled dogs. Anything that gets rejected for the dogs goes down on the lower end of our property and the birds are circling before we can get it unloaded. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That is good !! its been a tough winter here, two back to back heavy snow falls ,that left over three feet then just last week another heavy one with 9 inches or so, all the critters are hungry and i 'm hoping they make the birthing season without more snow.

That makes a mighty fine gumbo know how to make a rue? lol besides the lake 30 miles away we have seagulls in two places the McDonalds parking lot and the city dump. tells a lot about the food at mc D's, Heck yea i can make a rue and I've ate plenty of them little furry tails. They are tiny here compared to the ones in your world though it takes about five to get a decent meal. Funny story, years ago me and the wife were fishing on the bank of the lake. the wife likes to use cheese balls and its really good on trout. well she was munching on some cheetos and got this brain fart that they may be good trout bait too so out comes the hook a nice fat cheeto is put on and as she casts it out. it no sooner hit the water than here comes a seagull diving at top speed LOL my wife got this look of OH SH*T why didnt i think this would happen look in her eyes and started reeling like heck. Luckily the cheeto pulled off just as the gull hit it and swooped it away. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
