Nope. Real nice guy. Wanted to see the boat’s papers and wrote down the coordinates from the GPS. He asked if we caught anything (which at that point we hadn’t) but didn’t ask for fishing licenses or to look in live wells. I think those guys can size up the situation pretty quickly. He said they’re out there just trying to do their job.

Fantastic! Last traffic stop I had was the same except he did take my DL and run it just to make sure no issues, which there weren't. This was about a year ago. Since I've grown older I don't hardly ever have any interaction with the revenuers unless it's friendly.

This morning next door to a property I was working at.......

The ducks are late this year to this nesting box that I provide. There is usually a hatching in early May but these eggs won't be ready till early June. They usually lay about a dozen before the pair start taking turns sitting on them.

Wow - those are some big ducks...very healthy! What kind are they, Jolly?

Much respect to you for providing the nesting box for them. I also enjoyed your pic and comments on the Hognose Snake in the "snake thread". I've always liked that species, too!

Here's a pic of my Dioon spinulosum with a new flush of leaves......

Those are Black Bellied Whistling Ducks. Here is a brood that hatched in one of my boxes a few years ago.

Cool! If they drove a car, it would be a Camaro...
