Seriously, if you encounter a turtle crossing the road, be very careful if you decide to move it. Not only may you cause a car accident but also, all turtles can inflict a bite that will require medical attention.

Why Mr Turtle Crossed The Road
I stopped my car to rescue a Snapping Turtle and learned the hard way, why Mr. Turtle crossed the road.
Seriously, if you encounter a turtle crossing the road, be very careful if you decide to move it. Not only may you cause a car accident but also, all turtles can inflict a bite that will require medical attention.

October Slough Gills
Well, storm clouds appeared in the west, a cold hard wind began to howl and I've got no rain gear. So I assume the "lazy boyee" position ( my canoe has oar locks and the paddles are oars ) for the 2 mile row off the lake. The threat of rain passes making for a very comfortable canoe ride.
Willow Slough is a major, natural migratory bird resting area. I was ducking birds left and right. In the end I happen by a Bald Eagle on a cattail raft having dinner.
I hope you enjoy my little trip "October Slough Gills" as much as I did bringing it to you. Please like and subscribe. Thanks, Garnie.

Duck Hunt In Hell
Thanks !!!
Duck Hunt In Hell
Been a long winter here, record cold and snow, got 4 inches / 10 cm of snow on the "Blood Moon", this years first full moon of Spring, but let's go back to September of 2013.Here's a duck hunt video filmed on the hottest September 10th in recorded history. 96 degrees is now the current record for this day. The temperature in the Bayous of Lasalle Fish and Wildlife Area had to be +100 with 100% humidity and no wind.
The ditch I had to canoe was a mile and a half mud hole, beaver dams and food stores blocked the ditch every 30 yards, forcing me to get out and drag the canoe across knee deep muck. When this ditch is at normal fall water levels I can canoe the mile+ to the Waterfowl Resting Area in 15 min, on this day it took every bit of 2 hours. One thing for sure, I love me some duck hunting.
This video is a little long, about 25 minutes, so grab a snack, your favorite beverage and a smoke( if its ok with mama), and get a laugh with this duck hunting fool on his "Duck Hunt In Hell".
