I was just sitting on the back deck enjoying the beautiful morning sipping my Java and watching the pretty bird's having breakfast when I spotted a intruder slinking into my yard. I froze in mid sip and eyeballed him as he made his way to the feeders and told myself if he stay's on the ground to eat the fallen seed I'll let him ride. He passed by me on the deck and headed for the tree up front that carries all the feeders but the seed on the ground wasn't good enough as he headed right up the tree. :0 I slowly got out of my deck chair and slipped inside the backdoor and for the gun room. I had the B26 out to wipe her down so I just grabbed her and loaded a CPHP. I did a quick peak out the front window to see the nutter hanging off a feeder filling his cheeks and dumping seed everywhere. :0 I headed for the back door and inched out onto the deck then to the corner of the house to poke a eye out around the corner. The nutter was unaware of the barrel inching around the corner followed by the scope that rested the cross hairs on the sweetspot, just filling his cheek's. He dropped his head to get another mouthful and as he sat back up I sent the CPHP which found it's mark in a wink of an eye. The nutter dropped from the feeder hit the grass and did several death roll's but then stiffened up his tail and expired. I set the B26 down in the chair next to me and finished up my cup of Java then went to retrieve this mornings harvest for some pic's. I've taken several nutters and Bandit's along with some pest birds from this spot, 15yrds so it was just a matter of dropping em and retrieving em hehe. I had him dressed out in a jiffy and wrapped for the icebox and poured myself another cup of Java and continued my morning deck meditation. I have been night hunting but things have slowed along with some day hunt's between tunes the resident keep's telling me to get up there in the evening since the G-hog's are coming out around 7:00pm, got to get a G-hog.
