Squirrel hunting over fall break

For the Good Hunting Club, Columbus Day and Cornell's fall break meant an extra opportunity to hunt some squirrels. We took six squirrels this weekend (4 gray and 2 red) on two morning trips to the Danby State Forest.

Leaves are starting to cover the seasonal roads at the Danby State Forest.

See if you can guess which is the giant male that aggressively
responded to my new Lohman Distress Whistle.

When I got home I tried a new recipe for Squirrel Nuggets that proved delicious:

1. Chunk squirrel into bite size pieces
2. Dip a piece into milk, then coat with seasoned flour (mix your own blend)
3. Drop into an inch of hot oil and fry until light brown

About one squirrel's worth of nuggets makes a tasty snack.
