You Never Know What You May Find  

Posted by Stan Harrington

Been spending several hours for the past couple of days going on photo hunts for respectable representatives of the Bull Moose. With winter coming on, time is limited as they will soon start slipping their antlers. Seeing a number of cows and calves, but the big Bull has been elusive. Did spot one yesterday, although I could tell he had horns, even with the aid of binoculars I could not judge the size.

However, the great thing about photo hunting, in an attempt to get as close as possible to the target, you often find things that you are not expecting. That was the case today when I stumbled onto this specie. Seeing this specie, let alone having it stick around long enough to get a picture is unusual. He did not seem to mind me, he let me know not to intrude any further by his hissing and growling. After clicking a few pictures of him, he was gone as fast as he had appeared.

By the way did you get a chance to see the game?! Go Huskers! Tonight is not a night to be out and about in Lincoln! It is the last home game!

Yes, I did watch the game, good game, so now at least they have won the Big 12 (Northern). Congratulations, I bet you could hear it from your house.
