You're welcome, Willie, very cool to see it hanging. That is really interesting, it isn't just a skull and antlers, but also an artistic object. Good choice over leaving the hide remaining. Georgia O'keefe used animal skulls in her images a lot. One person described them as, "inevitable and...

Canned corn beef is delicious.

A fox can kill an adult deer?

We see it here with the monkeys. People build a second home and want to feed the cute baby monkeys, then they realize with dismay that the baby monkeys come with a large group of big monkeys, and their combined IQ is considerably higher than the humans. The new veranda becomes monkeyville. :|:

My area has a growing fox population, one trotted by the front of my shop in mid day last week. There used to be stray cats in the area, but not a one now, and I no longer see any pheasants. My cat was almost caught by a fox one late afternoon, having made it to his private entrance in what...

I read where some parts of Los Angeles have a problem with coyotes coming into the city to look for food in trash cans. Probably take care of a few cats while they are at it.

Not Chinese, but wonder how a leg would taste?

He's only charging $10 to remove a brain? Boris Karloff made a whole lot more than that.

What are we looking at there, Willie? You took the hide or skin off the head, whichever it is called? What is next in the process?

Besides straight grain, I bet an experienced bow maker could tell you which Yew trees are best. Younger trees seem to have more resiliency when it comes to bending Oak.

I recall that period. It was actually the bark that was being used for the cancer drug. I saw photos of huge piles of Yew logs that had been cut for that purpose...they were for sale, but I also heard terror stories of many more Yews that had been cut and had their their bark stripped and then...

Yew is really a beautiful wood with a lot of character, ages to a deep color and polishes up to a high degree. Some of the best English chairs also utilized it, particularly in the Windsor style. Technically a soft wood, but not a particularly easy one to work with. I've never seen an English...

Yes, and a very unusual and respected wood all around the world.

Seems to me that Oak would work well for a bow, and easy to find straight grain. Black Locust splits surprisingly easily for such an otherwise hard and resilient wood. The strength holding the fibers together is not there. Yew is light, a good feature, but straight grain often requires some...

That deer on the bottom has a huge head!

If you kill it, you would be depriving some does from the pleasure of that good looking boy.

Handsome animal!

Do you guys ever cook venison is a pressure cooker? My neighbor gave me some deer and said that what he had was very tough, but to have a go with it. I tried cooking it up in a skillet, my usual way, but it was just too darn tough, ended up giving most of it to the crows. Later, he also gave...

Excuse me, it was Emilio.

I remember it was Emanual who was hunting cougar with his dogs, and put up that photo. Guess nobody else remembers.... I think he was in California, a family logging business I recall. Wonder what happened to him?
