Yep, on warm sunny days there are quite a few of them out. It sure is fun shooting them in the snow :D

The snows pretty much gone now, it's been in the high 40s most of the week. Never know though, it still could snow in march or something around here.

Males are up in the afternoon on a good day here in Idaho. All rounds loaded. Bag packed. Rifles ready. Winter sucks.

It looks like there might be a little bit of snow on the ground this weekend, and cloudy low 40s weather.

Thats it your the guy. Its rodeo lane, i could'nt remember. I live over on the west side , Beavercreek outside of Oregon City. I would love to live over east but just not as much work for a Union Carpenter over east. You had told me to look up your cousin awile ago probaly last year , i may do that depending on how our trip goes. We usually have such good sucsess we dont go anywhere else( at least its sucessful to me we have a blast) Do you farm over there?

Well, I don't, but my uncle has a pivot and wheelline over there. His neighbors have quite a few rats and both of them usually let people shoot on their property if you ask. If you want to call him or something I'll get you his number. Talked to my cousin today, the weather wasn't too great and he said that there were a lot of them up (for February).
