Haven’t seem any bunnies, but watched an owl, early morning, fight with a hawk over a duck one or the other, probably the owl, had been dining on. They each grabbed a piece. The hawk got the biggest part, but the owl got the head and flew away. Its wing span was HUGE!!!

Well, the one time I had a chance to shoot, I did pretty good...not as good as a 12-year old who went with us. LOL!


Crys's target is on top
...mine is on the bottom.
