Older Blacktail

Now this one ticked me off a bit.  I've searched this open flat a million times and only come up with one chewed forky two years ago.  Given the moss growth I must have just walked over, around, and by it dozens of times without seeing it.  This day I just saw the tip and thought it looked odd.  Must be at least 5 years old.  The last photo includes a heavy old shed from the same area, found last winter.

Dandy BT sheds!  The damn leaf cover hides 'em pretty well, makes them easy to walk right by.

It sounds like you are a little peeved at missing them the first several times around.   I think that the moss on one and the odd weathering patter on the other adds great character to them. Very nice, thanks for sharing.
