So I go out last weekend and find a double robin nest side by side on my boat town speakers! Thinking they wouldn’t come back since I pulled down the two nests, I didn’t close the role up storage door, in a day they had another one built. Note to self, even if you are going in and out of the building all day, close the door... Two days later I go get the oil changed in the Car, the AC blower is making a funny noise. I accuse the guy of messing with the fresh air cabin filter. |

Chewed up the filter and drug one of my lawn mowing socks in there.... Two days after that, I’m about 100 yards off shore on the barge with friends, a quail (I’ve never even seen a quail in our neck of the woods) comes out of nowhere and flies right into the side of my head (%ucker attacked me). I screamed like a little girl, it drops into the water and tries to get back on the barge, but the three dogs try to eat it so it swims off... I bought a Gamo Shadow 1200 fps. pellet gun a month ago, the little *******s had better watch their $hit... They are after me! JT Frank, tell me you have stories like this, not just self inflicted injury stories... Please... Over the 4th holiday We were at my little farm on the Touchet. Fishing, working etc.. Visiting an in-law's related asparagus farm, taking care of trees, building an outhouse etc.. Fishing was decent. And I was stalked by 3 large Owls. Yep, I was stalked by three large Owls. I went down to the river about a half hour till dark. As i approached a favorite spot a large barn owl flew off a rock from which he was watching the pool. He flew up into a tree from which he could clearly see me and I could see him. At each cast he hooted. Watching my back I moved down stream a bit and noticed another Owl sitting in plain sight on a sweeper tree. It too hooted at my casts, and was answered by the first Owl. Then another hooter appeared. They literally scared me off the river that evening. And continued to hoot for a half hour more. There have been a number of Owl attacks on the Island (wet-side) where i live by much smaller Owls. But these three Dry-side Owls were 2-3 times bigger and not at all afraid of me. Telling this to a Dry-side fellow who runs a cougar hunting dog pack, he said it was not that unusual, and warned that I also ought to watch out for cats, stalking me or my dog. Weirdly enough last nite here on the dry-side I heard what sure sounded like a bobcat screeching near my neighbor's chicken coop. Interesting. Dave Dun duh. Duh duh, duh duh, duh DUN... HOOOOOT! Just not working for me. Maybe a squirrel... Frank Reid |

Reminds me of the time I had a business dinner with a couple Alaska Women and was stunned as they tore into some huge restaurant steaks in Girdwood, . . . after half a Winter feeding on Moose and seal.
