As homesteader chickens go so to goes their predators. I recently received on outreach from someone that felt that a fisher was vexing their chickens. Fishers were once extirpated in Pennsylvania, but have started to recolonize the Commonwealth migrating in WV and NY in...

Testing. Testing. One-Two-...Three? It's been years since I've posted. In those years, this site became derelict. It's been hacked. The theme broke and stayed broke for months. This site was unused, unmaintained, and, honestly, at times it was unwanted....

Last year was a brutal year. This year didn't start-off any better. With lots of folks in the US vaccinated, life is slowly starting to creep back to normalcy. Thank goodness! For those of us that prioritize adventuring to see kick-ass wildlife, not to mention the...

I haven't had a minute to post on since I got back from Kenya. Yes, I actually made it and it wasn't easy. Within 24 hours of the time that we were to depart for Kenya, the Kenya government update their 'rona...

Literally the day before I was to leave for Kenya, the Kenyan government changed the covid testing requirements. Previously, a negative test was required within 14 days of arrival. Now it is 96 hours! It was already 72 hours before arrival when I got the...
