While sitting in a loc on I had a falcon intercept and destroy a smaller bird about 8 ft in front of me. Hit it so hard they went to the ground. Then it flew off with its prize.
Last year I watched a 2ft gray rat snake climb 30 ft to the top of a saw tooth. That was a surprise for sure. Joker went right up the side. No limbs or anything.
Don't blame me for your bad decision-

We were turkey hunting in South Dakota and saw a Miriam hen that had somehow hung herself in the forked branch of a huge cottonwood tree. She was easy 100 feet in the air hanging by her neck.

I finally hit the ground and get my flashlight out and shine it where the noise was coming from and its a damn emu about 10 yards from me. When I was about 6 years old I was at home with my mom and I remember my dad came busting through the door and running for his bedroom. He quickly came back out shucking shells into his old Remington 1100 as he was walking back out the door. About a half hour later he and my uncle showed back up with a dead emu in the back of the truck. Apparently a few had escaped from someones pen and they just said shoot on sight. Well my dad and uncle strung this thing up in the door of our shop and butchered it. I can still remember dad sitting a plate of what looked like sauced up pulled pork on the table and calling it "EMUbecue".

Was hunting a food plot one afternoon and could hear something walking around just on the outskirts but go too dark to see what it was. Decided I was going to sit there until it came out in the plot. I listened to it walking around for at least 30-45 mins and finally had enough so I climbed down. While I'm climbing down I can hear it getting closer to me. I finally hit the ground and get my flashlight out and shine it where the noise was coming from and its a damn emu about 10 yards from me. Scared the s#$^ outta me. Come to find out it belonged to someone up the road and it kept getting out of the pasture so they just let it roam around.
Coolest thing I've seen is a bobcat climb about 25 feet up a tree after a squirrel. The speed at which that joker got up that tree was amazing. Should've shot that bastard (the emu) they eat purty good 😀
Do not regret growing older, it's a privilege denied to many!
