Well just like everything else about 2020 chicken hunting sucks big time. Very few birds but lots of coyotes and Lynx.
I shot two a couple of weeks ago and two this morning but then it started to snow. grrrrr
Also saw a nice young eating size bull moose but no moose draw... double grrrrr
Here's a few pics.
And bears don't only shit in the woods they shit on the roads too.

Nice shootin son. You should have stood by to see that Lynx's ears drop to see what it had in its huntin eyes.

When lynx season comes you should try a nice cat roast
. I guess a bottle of Zeller Katz Schwarz would go well.

Yeah I don't know what the kitty was after but it sure was intent on catching it. Even the truck didn't seem to phase it very much.
As for shooting it that's a big no no as they can only be taken under the authority of a trappers license. (wink wink)
These are iphone pics so not the best of quality.

We had a beautiful fall with daytime temps well into the 60's last week. But Tuesday it started to get real crappy and the 14 day forecast looks terrible.
Supposed to get 15 - 25cm (6-10 inches) of snow tonight and tomorrow which sucks. But on the bright side we don't get hurricanes up here.

Went out for two hours today and only seen one bird.
Did see a nice little 4x4 whitetail buck but only had 7.5 shot in the gun soooooooo I passed on him.
Hope next year we have more birds.

But the real philosophical question is- Does the Pope shit in the woods?
Nice chickens, scarce as they are, good pics of the kitty, too. I've seen a couple in the backwoods of MN; The thing about cats is they are silent. The first one I met in the woods was checking me out, he got so close before I saw him I thought it was a ghost bobcat.....
Bet it's a bit cooler than that now up there.

Yes sir you could say winter is here. Hell some guys are already ice fishing but I lack motivation.
