Looking for deer antlers - treasures in the woods right now

Like to play hide-n-seek? The deer are shedding their antlers, treasures in the woods. Every year, the big bucks ( and the little guys too) shed their antlers -- think of them like fingernails. It doesn't hurt them, but they shed the tines for winter. Now is a good time to go look for them. Here is a nice article, scroll down about mid-way and it  gives you tips for finding some. http://www.biggamehunt.net/sections/Off_Season/Shed_Hunting__In_Search_of_Lost_Bone_01100604.html.

Stay tuned. Tomorrow we visit with Randy Sander of the Hochatown office of the Oklahoma Ranger District for the Ouachita National Forest. We have the biggest back yard of forest to play in. Hiking is wonderful right now. Get your boots on, enjoy nature's forest at Beavers Bend. Stay at Cowboy Bend, located 1/10 mile from trail head http://pinemeadowcabins.com/cabin14_dennis_southerncomfort.html

New forest neighbors!

We have new neighbors! An owl has moved in about 3 weeks ago. Who--hoo, who-hoo, through the night. Such a soft call. Wonder who he is talking to and what they are saying. Wonder why the owl moved? Where did it live before? Anyway, we're glad to have a new friend in the forest! Welcome to the neighborhood.

Freezing temperatures, arctic winds expected this weekend. Travel with extreme caution.
