Pileated Woodpecker Video I think most people enjoy seeing woodpeckers. And observing a pileated woodpecker in the wild is a special experience. It’s big. In fact, it’s the largest woodpecker found in North America. And on top of that, it has a call that sounds as if it’s direct from the jungle. One of our […]

Awesome Badass Buck! Deer With Broken Leg Beats the Odds and Survives
The Strong Survive Seven months ago, I posted a video to Facebook titled “Sometimes Life Sucks”. In the clip was a deer with a broken leg, stumbling through the pitch dark woods in a snowstorm.

Looking towards the barrel, where Buck’s head was (thinking the jay was stealing some meat), I saw that the head was gone. Upon further investigation, Buck’s hide (that was in another barrel close to the house) was […]
