If you don't have a camera with you, catch the damn thing!! Kill it and get it mounted - you can get some good $$ for a quality mount!

Usually nestled under structures on the south side of trees.....hardwoods but some like it soft......go checkout it out and give us a report.........

A two and a half hour ride from downtown Portland to Saco last night at 4:30pm rush hour. 17 car pile up at the bottom of the hill driving from Congress Street to Park Ave. Sitting at the red light through 5 light changes because someone decided to move forward and block the intersection. Where do these rookie drivers come from? I swear they wait for the first snowstorm to try out their driving permits, to be reminded to put their snow tires on.

Yeah and don't forget, you are going to have to bring it to a special tagging in station within 12 hrs, and we all know how conveniently they are located, and there's another $8 fee each time you do that never mind your gas to get there.

Most of the time this time of year accidents of this type occur due to Snow Snakes. They are very hard to see and if you hit one it will probably send your vehicle careening out of control, happens all the time.

I always wondered if you could just try to shoot one while out rabbit hunting? Or are they just that elusive that you need to stock them to get close? either way i am going to check my traps tonight after i drop the bait trap in!
