As you requested Mickey - for Patches and her master - and hoping for good news tomorrow. Hope you can try what Ed suggests, and hope it helps.
Turkey season just started here. Interestingly, I was out for the first time today, and the afternoon got warm - working across and around some logs from a downed oak I just about stepped on a Prairie Rattler. It was sunning and did not make rattle one. Good thing it is still mostly chilly here as it moved very slowly - for a few seconds.
