January has been very cold and snowy and the nutters have kept holed up for the most part, getting a thaw today and they are active. Got a red this morning and a grey later on. The red was 35yds off a yew bush digging around I had the Disco and a hunter extreme. The grey was at about 45yds off a tree stump again with the Disco and an extreme. 105 and 106 were last week with the Disco and extremes at 35 to 40yds out of pine trees. my season record is 109 last year.

Great shooting buddy and nice pics! I thought I posted yesterday but now I can't find my post. That happened twice last week. I must be losing it
About 3/4 of the snow has melted here with the last 2-3 days in the 40's, but we need at least 1 more "warm" day to see grass and I don't think we are going to get that until maybe the weekend. It's back to mid 30's the next few days.

Nice. I figured out why Starlings seldom come and no squirrels although they were all over during the summer. 2 cats take turns camping out in my yard. One 14-15 yards from the bait oand hides behind a tree (like birds & squirrels can't see her). The other one hides behind an old playground/slide in my backyard that I 've had for years since my son was young and about 12 yards from the bait.
I gotta figure out what to do with these cats that are ruining my pesting efforts, and they also eat most of the cat food. I only discovered them (although I 've been suspicious for weeks) when a squirrel would bark at something every day and I couldn't see what it was from the small opening in the window I shoot out of, until I started going out every time it barked, and saw the cats run out of the hiding places
