GETTING OUTSIDE
Bald eagles make comeback in Minn.
Not so long ago, it took an eagle eye to spot one around Douglas County.
But these days more and more eagles are calling Douglas County home — including the one that built a nest at the Arrowwood Resort and Conference Center.

Hoping for milder conditions in March
In like a kitten and out like a lamb.
I know that’s not exactly how the traditional saying goes, as I’m substituting a kitten in place of lion to describe the month of March. At least, that’s how I’d like to see March unfold, with a beginning, middle and end less like January and more April-ish.

Buying bird stamps good way to give back
Over the past decade I’ve read numerous accounts on the rising popularity of watchable wildlife, which is a more inclusive and contemporary terminology than simply birdwatching.

Landscape of North Dakota CRP changing
If I had to identify with a decade, it was the 1980s.
While I was born in the ‘70s and remember a few events and places, like the LaMoure Lobos winning the 1976 North Dakota State Class B basketball title after we moved there from Williston, the ‘80s are when most of my vivid memories begin.
But I don’t remember the start of the Conservation Reserve Program, even though I was an avid hunter and angler by that time.

Plenty of adventure in tracking predators
In the early 1980s trapping fox, coyotes, badgers, muskrat and a bonus mink did more than just pay for gas. Fur prices were strong and fox outnumbered coyotes to the point where a coyote pelt brought a nice reward, and the intense hunting and trapping effort helped keep numbers in check as well.
