BUZZARD TREE:
Can you see the six big, black vultures in this dead tree? Way up high; almost every cold day they come to sit/nap and spread their wings to get warmth from the sun. They're ugly rascals, but a necessary evil; they are scavengers and clean up roadkill on the highways and byways. And now that we have deer hunting season going on, I'm sure they find wounded poor deer here and there out in the country. There's nothing "sporting" about sending a pack of dogs into the woods to flush out deer, and when they run straight towards you, kill them with a rifle. Duh. Hunters nowadays should have to hunt like the American Indians used to hunt.....on foot, with bow and arrow. Without dogs. And hunters now should also be made to use and eat every part of the deer, and then tan its hide for later use. Such waste. Time for me to go tack up some more "NO HUNTING" signs around our farm.................
