Little bit of snow on the ice today....just a dusting.

Didn't see a coon track where I'm removing some problem beaver.

Funny thing happened though....the duck hunters that were complaining yesterday drove down and asked me if I could walk up the ditch aways and get the ducks up that are using that hole lol. Told them no,as that is what they were afraid of yesterday BaHaaaaaaa

Hard to get motivated with this forecast. A bit disheartening, I/ll admit.
