Prairie dogs out

Now that we've had a little warmer temps, some snow has melted in the Pdog towns. Slogged my way through the snow drifts yesterday to a nice small town. Had some great shooting with the .223. Lots of dogs out.
My favorite time of the year to shoot. No bugs, snakes or people around.
Always look forward to the first Pdog shoot of the year. Very Happy

Gophers are out here and lots are getting run over on the highways etc already.

Been shooting a few myself with the 22.250, did you here about what they are doing to control the Pdog problem in Colorado?
Blow Them Up

Saskatchewan has the only Prairie dogs in all of Canada and they are protected here. They are about 90 miles south of me and not to far from the Montana/Saskatchewan border. The last time I saw the PD towns they were huge.
