Time for another photo thread ! Odd or strange outdoor photos.

Just that boring time of year for me so I thought it's time for another photo thread. We had a good input on a few older threads on fishing and fishing lures. Lots of great photos were seen.  Just thought about some odd or different outdoor photos I've taken or seen over the years so I'll post a few. Feel free to comment or post some of your own and share. Mine are mostly local fishing but any outdoor oddities will fit in. Just killing time with these slow Winter days !  Enjoy ....................

One in a million I call this one !  Got a fish in the back round jumping in the Niagara River ! Never ever happen again !


 
Two deer in Elk Creek cooled off and decided to visit my buddy fishing !

This Steelhead was caught and released as you see and was caught again by me two weeks later about a mile upstream! We figured a prop hit .

I was with my friend here when he shot a Pa. buck that had 100% fur covering the rack. It was a buck that never rubbed off it's velvet! The rack was covered with blonde 1/2" hairs.

    It was a boy. Penn State checked it out and said some deer get injured and will cause that to happen. You could have taken a comb and brushed the hair ! He had the rack freeze dried by a taxidermist and it still looks pretty cool.

    Thanks' Nick that is one of my lifetime favorite photos ! I was using my 35 mm Cannon camera taking that photo of my son holding that Laker and had know idea that that fish was in the photo. Got the film developed a week or so later and at first glance I thought it was a log floating by. Took a double take and thought WOW ! What are the odds of getting a fish jumping partially out of the water that split second !  One in a million I'd say !

    Good stuff. Catfish on a jitterbug.......never would have thought!!
     
    I've been going through all my pics and can't really find anything I'd call odd, strange, etc. Here's two things that come sorta close I guess
     
    Caught this little brook trout this past summer. Had some wounds probably from a bird or something.....other than that nothing too unusual. About a month or so later, I caught it again!!!! Proves that C&R works and the wounds seemed to have healed up nicely. I've caught many other fish multiple times as well but this one stuck out the most.
     


     
    Around that same time frame I fished another stream in the area. Caught a decent amount of fish...mix between hatchery browns and bows and wild browns. I eventually came to a spot where a tiny little jump across trib comes in through all that vegetation. Didn't even notice it until I was on my way back to the vehicle it was so well hidden.


     
    In one of the first pools, I catch this guy!! A good sized wild brown trout for such a tiny stream. Nice surprise! Ended up catching a little dink as well.
     

     
    So when I got home I looked at the map and this creek doesn't even show up. No little blue line or anything. The creek doesn't have a name and isn't on the PFBC's natural reproduction list for trout. Always cool when you stumble upon little places like that!

    tg,
     
    Catfish farms use floating fish pellets. Not uncommon for Cats to nail top water lures. Trout are near the bottom ov smart fish list. Carp, Catfish & Bass r top ov list for fresh water. Panfish r even smarter.

    These photos are a pair of wild Ducks that frequent the Lower Shenango River area. I did a post on these a few years ago trying to figure what species they were. They are wild and have been seen over the years fairly steady. There are more than one pair flying around but after numerous try's I finally got two on film. They appear to be a Mallard mix. Haven't been on the river a lot the past few years to notice but they were around for about five years or more. I've seen around six or more pairs together over the past years. Being an old past avid waterfowl hunter for years I found these kind of unique !

    Nice pic of the black fox.  Buddy and I were unloading the truck early one morning ice fishing at Manning launch last year when he says check this out.  I walk around the truck and there is one standing 10ft from him.  Hung around for a minute or 2, then off into the dark.  Thought maybe he winded our bait bucket and was coming in for a closer look.  Beautiful animal.  Wish I would have had a camera.

    Fishing in Erie I had this deer drop from the cliff. At first glance and by the sound of it hitting the ankle deep water, I thought it was a giant boulder. When we got up to it we realized it was a buck!
     
    A couple weeks later while archery hunting I heard a noise in the tree above me. I stepped out from the tree and the following fell out of the sky!  I was a good 400 yards from the lake! I looked up and saw a bald eagle fly off!

    What is that duck..............

    White feathers are 'usually' a result of wild ducks mating with domesticated birds. Male birds having curled feathers on the back just above the tail are considered Mallards. Those having a white chest, such as the one in your picture, are referred to as "bibbed".

    I've sailed the concrete oceans and the asphalt seas where, the hills and mountains were waves to me............  Good stuff; Big trucks bring it

    Sujie you have three ways; 1. Create a Fish/USA Album; 2. Create a PhotoBucket Account; 3. Load directly from your files.  The quickest and easiest will be #3 as the other accounts have their own requirements to upload/download.
     
    Loading directly from your files. 
     
    1. Find at the (left center) top of your reply page;  (Open Full Version) and click.
    2. Find the icon for picture(s) (2nd from left) at far right of your reply page and click.
    3. Click "From Gallery/Upload".
    4 Click "Upload images from your computer".
    5. Find the picture you wish to upload.
     
    Your pictures may have to be resized to meet certain requirements so you may have to edit and resize your pictures before hand.  Not a bad idea too create a separate file/folder just for the purpose of submitting pictures.
     
    Creating the PhotoBucket Account is fun and it gives you some additional editing and storage capabilities.  Once you've learned how it works it can be useful.
     
    Fish/USA Album, on the other hand (my critics ain't gonna believe this one), I 'know nothing' about. (lol)
     
    PS. Make certain your cursor is where you want the upload to appear.  Hope this helps!
     
    PSS.  I don't believe #3. can be accomplished via phones.

    Give a man a fish and you will feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you will feed him for a life time. ~Anne Isabella Thackeray Ritchie (1837–1919)~

    Deer swimming across Raccoon Lake.
    (A few months later I watched a squirrel swim across but didn't have my camera.)

    Amazing two-headed seagull on the lower Allegheny while I was catching no fish.
