Nice. I used to have deer come in the yard to snack from the bird feeders but there's too much traffic now.

Raccoons have a tendency to catch lead poisoning in my yard. Coons and squirrels are a pain in the hind end.

In most cases, wiersy, you would be correct, but in this case I need the challenge. I'm trying to outwit the masked critters. If I remember correctly I have the bigger and far more superior brain...Actually I'm having a ball with this "war"...

The little masked bandits are just devious. They seen to only come around the yard late a night to wake the dogs up, tease them for a while then disappear.

Nice pic Glockster. I reckon, if you were to keep her around, then her young one when it comes along, maybe some others will join her....then its a case of gettin' Gelan with his 300 Whisper and slide the screen door open verwy verwy slowly..... pppphhhhhtttt....thwooop.....  BUGGER....another one stuck in the barrel...again...on second thoughts, maybe git yourself a bow mate.
Sorry Gelan...couldn't resist it mate.

Reminds me of a post a couple of years back mate...someone was having a right royal tussle with some beavers I think....never heard what the final outcome of that one was...
Be interesting to hear your saga Bushy...fill us in mate.
Cheers, Vince

No Beaver problems but Muskrats are a big problem for my yard around my Pond. Their little tunnels that collapse when I drive over them with my lawn mower, I keep these little Rodents under control with the 22 or .410.
