Wildflowers at Goose Pond prairie areas like Penstemon stretching across GP9 or Day Lilies with their large orange flowers along road sides and Hemlock with its white flower and purple spotted stem and not to forget Daisy Fleabane with its small white daisies and Milkweed with its large flower cluster.

There are many beautiful sites if we take time to look.

A new bird at Goose Pond is the Roseate Spoonbill. This exciting bird has never been seen before in Indiana has been visiting Goose Pond the last couple of weeks. It was found by Lee Sterrenburg on June 2nd. Outstanding work Lee.

Around the area fisherman have been out in force. We have been having some luck on bluegill using crickets.

At Goose Pond several miles of levee top mowing has been done making Walking, Hiking and Wildlife viewing more enjoyable.

Many Thanks to the Men and Women serving in our military around the world for helping to preserve our freedom.

My friend Kegan and I started the weekend off by doing some catfishing on Black Creek. Fishing was a little slow that evening, but it was good to be outdoors...

Spring is here
Posted Friday, March 27, at 12:48 PM

With a little warmer weather, fishing has picked up bluegills and crappies have been biting pretty good. If you like to use a fly rod for pan fish you can have a great time catching fish on a top water popper, not to mention a good meal. Turkey season is not far off, beginning on April 22nd and running thru May 10th. I have seen ole tom turkey out in full strut already, so it's time to get out and do some scouting to be ready for the season opener...

Well here we are, most of the hunting seasons are over. And those seasons that are still open will be over soon. While some had a very productive year, others did not. But it's not about the game you take it's about being outdoors.

Outdoor Experiences
Posted Tuesday, November 18, at 4:51 PM

Over the few weeks I have had some excellent outdoor experiences. A friend ask if I would like to go waterfowl hunting with him. I did and had a lot of fun hunting ducks and geese. I hadn't been waterfowl hunting in 34 years and on our first hunt I shot my limit of ducks and later In the week I shot my limit of geese and that's not because I'm a great wing shooter it's because I hunted with a guy that knows how and where to go. Thanks Dennis...
