Back in September, news outlets reported on the decline of North American songbirds over the last 50 years. Estimates believe a 30% loss in breeding birds. Over 90% of the loss were to bird families such as sparrows, warblers, blackbirds and finches. Grasslands birds lost over 50% of their population while around 1/3rd of shorebirds have vanished. Habitat degradation was cited as one factor – among several human-inflicted maladies – as a cause for the decline. Looking around Florida,...

Wrestle every free daylight moment you have to sit in a stand during November. I clamored into my blind at 2:00 on Saturday afternoon. At 6:50, I caught movement in the corner of my binoculars. A young six-point was rubbing a bay sapling. A couple grunts later and he stepped forward for my first entry into the new Harvest Reporting System. Mourning over an uneventful September and October was suddenly in the rear view. The weatherguy had once again promised… Read More » ...

Unlike other recent deer management practices, this wasn’t run through, I’m told, through… Read More »...

The Deer Camp in Chiefland saved my bacon a couple weekends ago. A black boar shuffled around the feeder in the early October morning. 55 yards. Not unreachable with a crossbow, and I felt like airing out the new CenterPoint Amped 415. With care not to bounce the limbs on the sides of the box stand, I flicked the safety to red and squeezed the trigger. Rather than a downfield “Thwack,” I was startled by an echoing “Pop” and the… Read More » ...

My American pride in democracy, grasp of U.S. history, and current employment in local government help me appreciate the essential value of public input in this country. The last round of Black Bear Management Plan Webinars I listened to in 2016 really shook those values. FWC’s staff is a patient crew. Here in 2019, black bear management – and, by extension, hunting – is a reviving debate. A comprehensive management plan proposal was released, and it’s an impressive educa...

How is Florida’s new Deer Harvest Reporting system going As I’ve chronicled, success has not been my friend this season to have given it a shot myself.
