Those little spiny rats will do a lot of damage to trees if they aren't controlled. I have seen them kill a lot of trees by chewing up the bark.

I took this pic last year at the POCI in Bettendorf, Iowa. At the time I wasn't all that impressed with it when I first saw it but the more I see it the more I like it.

I like this one of my '74, although I obviously used a little computer trickery.

There have been some very nice pictures posted in this thread. Without taking anything away from those previously posted, I have to say I really like this picture! You have captured a little bit of everything I appreciate in one moment. Good job!

Thank you.
I was driving down the road in an area I hunt. My wife mentioned "Did you see those cars sitting back in the woods?"
"No"
"They looked old. I don't know what they are."
Driving by the next day I had to go on private property to get close enough for pics. The sun was going down,I thought it looked cool. I grabbed my wife's phone to take the pics. I actually took a few more that I thought came out better,but this is the only one my wife E-mailed to me from her phone!

I work for a company that has a few domestic foundries- I used to work for one, now I work for two that compete(I know it sounds weird). Making a joke/building relationships I always shoot the new foundries guys photos of the koozie they gave me on my last trip out... this one was to show my cupholder while in the garage- thought it looked cool.
