RE: What's the strangest thing you've seen while bowhunting?
I watched a ferret or martin or something like that chase a brown mouse all over the place one morning. They both went up a tree about 20 feet from me and ran around like they do on cartoons. The mouse ran to the top of the tree and then down into it (it was dead and broken off about 30 feet up) and the ferret-thing (about 3 feet behind) followed. The mouse came out about 5 or 6 feet down and rann straight up and off the top of the tree! He looked like he had a bottle rocket on his back! He shot off that tree and landed in another about 4 or 5 feet away. When that ferret-thing stuck his head out the side he just looked around not know ing which way the mouse went. It was the funniest sight I can remember.
Also watched a falcon chase a dove around the tree-tops one morning for about 10 minutes. That was absolutely amazing. I never seen or heard either one hit a branch, but they were both going as fast as I've ever seen birds fly, dippin and dodgin and weavin. Just incredible.
