On November 2nd I went hunting with grandpa up by donnelly. We got up there and I was able to get six snow shoe hare on the first even. On that same evening we saw about 25 or so snow shoe hares up there. We also heard three grouse and saw one of them. The nexted day on the way up there we saw some funny looking tracks I took some photos of then we went on up the hill. I was able to get another three snow shoes before we had to head home.
On November 4th grandpa and I went chukar hunting by bliss. We got up there just before noon so we ate our lunch as we walked to the of the canyon. When we got to the edge of the canyon we were finishing our lunch when three chukars got up and flew away but neither one of us were ready for them so we did not get shot at them. We went in to the canyon and walked a few miles and did not see a birds. When I was climbing out of the canyon I found a nice mule deer antler laying on the ground and just after I picked it up I saw a mule deer doe fun out of the canyon about 20 or 30 yards from me. After i had gotten out of the canyon I met up with grandpa and we started heading back. We had been walking and talking when for a while when about 20 or 25 chukars get up in front of us but again we were not ready for them so we were unable to get a shot off at them. After we had gotten back to the truck and started heading down the hill I saw some mule deer a little ways away from the road. I took some photos of them then we went home.
On November 5th I went hunting for pheasants and quail on the farm in the pasture while I was hunting I was going by some big trees and in one of the trees I saw a great horned owl. I did not have my camera so I went back to the house and got my camera then came back and took some photos of it. I continued hunting but did not get any thing.
- Question what mammal made the tracks?
- Question why were there so many snow shoe hares?
- Question why did we not see a few more chukars until we were heading back?
