While exploring that I spotted some owl balls and picked one up and poked at the mouse bones and explained what it was.

She told me later that she said to herself that any man who knew that was one she needed to marry!

Well, I just say whatever worked, I am glad!

I'd have never thought to file that tidbit of knowledge under 'girl attractor".

Came up on this one on the way home today

Diamond back rattlesnake that measured about 5'.
I felt bad about killing it but on the same hand would feel worse if one of my loved ones got bit by one and it was on my property.

Owl Pairs

There are Two, Who hunt here in the late night/early morning.
If you walk outside you can hear them Hooting Back and Forth...

Too Cool.

'Nice Snake (Half a Boot?)

They have a "RattleSnake" roundup in Claxton every year.
