The first whooping crane has arrived in Wisconsin!

Quote:

The first whooping crane of the season has arrived in Wisconsin! Direct Autumn Release (DAR) crane #28-05, from the Class of 2005, is the first confirmed whooping crane to arrive in Wisconsin. She was observed with sandhill cranes in Dodge County by residents Jack and Sandra Saunders on the morning of March 8--she likely arrived in Dodge County on March 7. Number 28-05’s arrival in Wisconsin is a week earlier than last year’s first arrival which occurred on March 14. After a long, cold Wisconsin winter, it appears that spring has finally arrived!

I did see my first bluebird of the season yesterday.

The great season of warmth and growing is approaching us!

Today I looked out my window at work and saw 5 robins in the tree eating shriveled up berries. This is a good thing to see robins.

That basically means drop it right

I will however say this,i have been an outdoorsman all my life,hunting,fishing,anything outdoors,i am also a taxidermist by profession,so it shouldn't be that difficult to use your imagination and come up with "my take on gun control"
