Has warmed up a whole bunch here and snow going fast. Makes some great ghost hunting with a 22lr. Sneak thru the cover watching for that shiny black eye or even that white body in the brown. Not all those white patches are a bit of snow that is left.

Makes some great eating also when the fun is over.

Not too familiar with rabbits but Im itching to shoot Hare again, soon ! I run around the fields at night with a Maglite and an ancient BSA Meteor .177 and it is GREAT FUN !!!! I found the .22lr used to use destroys too much edible meat if not shot in the head....

Learned to do that when I was 8yoa I remember my Dad saying look for the black dot.

After finding my first one it seemed easy but it took several hunts to find the first one.

22lr shoot them I the eye.

Did someone say snowshoes? Very tough year with 90" of snow but once it crusted over with 2 weeks left in the season things got better.
