So….whats your opinion on the Ministry of “No Results”? So far over the last 20 years our forests have been decimated due to mismanagement, our bear management is totally out to lunch, our lakes are no longer being stocked, (slot sizes) new fisheries management zones, no staff on the ground to collect the data to make sound decisions….policy……., new moose management policy…meetings……….public input…..give your head a shake boys….they haven’t got a flipping clue about our natural resources. Now lets bring into the swing of things……Species at Risk………I’m waiting for the Ministry to finally acknowledge that there are “Native” populations of cougars in Ontario. Look out……….now they will have to come up with a management policy to address this…………because they are “A species at risk” . Ok, I could go on for pages and pages……I’ve been employed in the natural resource field for over 25 years and it all makes me sick.

Firewood
This past weekend I spent up north at my parents property cutting firewood. Saturday wasn’t the nicest day , however any day spent in the bush is better than a day spent behind a desk. It was a nice get away, lots of sign; moose, deer, and even happened upon a bear den…..with lots of steam coming from its depths. The winds in the fall and over the winter provided more than enough downed wood for a weekend of cutting. We didn’t stress ourselves too hard, but still managed to cut a fair amount of wood.

Deer have faired well……..
Easter weekend gave me the opportunity to observe some deer up at our farm. The antics of some of the does butting their fawns, raising their legs towards one another, it was hilarious. They truly are amazing animals to observe as they interact, and respond to even the most distant noises.
