Hi All!

Daughter: "Dad! Do you think we could make squirrel-pot-pie?"

Dad: "Ummm....well....oh hell yes lets try! I'll go grab your gun, you get the dog."

And with that my daughter's quest for her own hunting and cooking show continues. We've been hunting on a large tract of private land and my daughter's noticed that we've been having to hunt harder and further to fill the game bag - she's understanding that her hunting influence is having an effect. So based on obvious territorial markers such as massive maddens and signs of high squirrel activity, we've been watching and have identified 6 squirrels (5 females and one male so far as I can tell...I never thought I'd be studying squirrels private areas through the spotting scope!) that get the free pass.

Hunting the rest of the property we've been having to work pretty hard, so this is likely her last squirrel episode until next fall/winter so the little suckers can, in her words, "re-populate" a bit.


Her next video - "step-by-step practice with your shotgun!"

Thanks so much for watching, she and I both get a big kick out of reading all your comments together.

Cheers,

Brobee
 
I love this bro... I went out and skinned my first squirrel (animal actually) after whatching your previous posts. My kids are all that's gross! But I tell them there may be a time that's all we have so we best learn someday. Are you in Alberta?
 
1:53 - that's one way to stop their squeaking!

("Get you're ears") - did you mean ear protection, or the cat ears she's wearing? LOL

Great video - if this was the US, someone would pickup and produce this talent. Keep up the good work!
 
The academy award for best youth cooking/outdoor program goes to.... Julia. Good job young lady and kudos to you dad for helping and encouraging her
 
Julia, I think it is awesome that you and your family can enjoy healthy food that you supplied from the forest to the table! So many people think that food comes from some magic factory where meat arrives in a styrofoam and plastic wrap package. Also great that you recognize that when the population goes down you need to give the squirrels a break. If you think squirrels are fun to harvest, wait until you first try shooting ducks! (and rabbits and grouse). Grouse especially are very tasty and no need for tenderizing. Oh, best of all are snipe. Mmmm, snipe.
Your dad is teaching you skills and responsibilities that everyone should learn but usually do not. Congratulations to you both on your videos.

Another good video! Keep it up. :)
 
There are no words for HOW AWESOME I THINK THIS VIDEO with your little lady is!

Congrats to you and your daughter!

Cheers
