I haven't seen...

A skunk, a nightjar, a bluejay, a field lark, a quail, a snipe, a yellow-hammer, a scorpion, a starling or a red headed woodpecker...

...in many, many years.

I used to see all of these regularly when I was a kid.

The only place I have seen scorpions was near the chattahoochee river.

Think about those massive flocks of blackbirds we used to see in the late70s and early 80s. They would go on forever. Haven’t seen flocks like that in many years.

Y'all need to come walk around in my shop at night with a black light. It's about 20 yards from a big rocky bluff and they're everywhere.

We were talking about that at work last week. I used to sneak out the door with my old 870 and round the corner of the house looking at a cut cornfield. There would be gazillions of them on the ground. I could usually get 15 or 20 of them.
