Unlike in Frost's poem Mending Wall, here there are cows. So fences do make good neighbors:

"So for all you aspiring outdoor scribes out there who want writing advice, well, here’s the deal: I can’t give you lessons on how to craft a story about the relative merits of the 12-gauge versus the 20 (the 16’s better than both, anyway), I can’t offer up a template on how to analyze and break down an area to efficiently and quickly find birds (Walk to where it looks birdy?), and I certainly have no guidance on building a list of the 10 Best anything (I’ve found that one or two will usually suffice for me).
But if I had one piece of advice to give those looking to write an upland story that comes from a place those other stories do not — a story that is evocation rather than explanation — I can only offer you this, and it’s more confessional observation than advice….." 🔗Link below.

A person receiving a Door Dash order, received it from an unexpected person. After a Door Dash Driver got arrested this afternoon, "for stuff he didn't take care of", a SFPD officer went above and beyond and completed the Door Dash.

Greatest graveside service ever. Mel Antonen's remains in an old style base. Rose petals with baseball seams drawn on each, tossed in by mourners. A piece written by Mel about his love for the game, read by a dear friend of his. A perfect summer morning. A glimpse into heaven.

A mild winter followed by an avg spring promoted better nesting conditions. That’s why there were more birds. There is no tangible, scientific evidence that links pheasant #s to the bounty program. Just anecdotes. It gets kids outdoors. That’s a good thing but that’s about it.

Ever wondered how biologists catch birds to band them? In come cases, they use rocket nets. While the biologists wait quietly in a blind, they can set the rocket net off to safely ground the birds. In this case, our folks were banding waterfowl in southeastern South Dakota.
