I spent hours hunting squirrels today and the most saw was a glint of a squirrel running away through fallen leaves. I heard another one running away, but didn’t see it. With all of the leaves on the ground, it’s very difficult for me to see them. When the leaves on the ground are wet they defiantly have an advantage over me.
I’m not sure if it was the cold 38F - 47F, the hawks, the slight wind gusts or what. I thought they were supposed to be headed into mating season. I’m trying to figure out where they get it on because I didn’t see a damned thing that I read about concerning squirrel lovin’ happening today. Do they tend to do more screwing in the trees or on the ground?
Hawks flew over a couple of areas screeching and the crows came to mob one of them. I was watching the trees for a reaction from the squirrels and I didn’t see any movement in the trees. Anyone have any idea what temperatures are too cold for them to come out? I know I haven’t killed enough squirrels in the area to have put a significant dent in the population. I walked over two miles today and nothing. Then I almost dropped my rifle and fell into a creek bed crossing it on a downed tree. This sucks. I’m trying to figure out what’s going on with these squirrels. Any ideas?
