snow on my nose
« on: February 06, 2008, 02:41:25 AM »
.  I was going for that cover photo again and had hungry chucks looking for a handout.  This one in particular was not shy.  The day before you couldn't get within 100 feet of them.

bird wasn't the only one.  One of th echores of birds is the removal of snow off the top nets.  Gravity is a bitch.  My daughter caught some action whiole holding my camera for me.  I went to check my chuck pics and here was one of the bird guy.

Thanks Cohoho.  They are fun to have around.  Word has gotten out about the free meals and more and more birds are showing up.

That is the first time I have seen a fishing net used for snow removal.  :chuckle:

Great pics, as always, Bone!

I wish I could say the North American hunting club was having me product test gear, but really I just needed cooling off after I just got a collection notice from them for something I have never seen in the mail.

I am not sure my choice to become a lifetime member with NAHC was such a good idea.

I was a bit peeved when I opened up this envelope and found this was my final notice for something I never saw.  I returned things without opening them, I assume that was one of them.  That makes two items I sent back they are billing me for and threatening collections.

Well they got me on the coins and I sent a couple other things back!! I too have put in to do some of their field testing to no avail. My friend  had the fortune of getting selected for some mosquito wipe. Whoopy ding. Even their magazine has become sub par. I can't attest to the quality of their packs or other things.

Been a life member for about 15 years, I guess back in 91.  Have only been selected for one test, of $1.50 handwarmers that never showed up.  Been charged for things I did not order, fought and won, been charged for things I sent back, fought and won.  I have requested that they not send me ANYTHING except my magazine unless I specifically ask for it.  So far so good. 

They really have gone done hill since the early days.
