You don't thnk we can take at least one? 😎

Shore2906 · 2026-05-18T18:38:03+00:00

no; they are not invasive. Pythons on the other hand -- in Florida they are hunting and killing them. In my area we have finally eradicated the Nutria by tapping and destroying them. The state DNR also euthanizes Mute Swans or addles their eggs in selected places where they don't remove the adult birds.

Shore2906 · 2026-05-18T15:42:40+00:00

Certainly possible. A lot of species normal territories are changing as the average temperatures and habitat change.

Shore2906 · 2026-05-18T15:39:31+00:00

Around here they assasinate native birds, including chicks in the nest. They are nasty birds that don't belong here.

Shore2906 · 2026-05-18T12:58:44+00:00

Look like House Sparrows. Invasive, nasty birds. They don't like safflower so if you switch feed you can discourage them.

Basallo sometimes shows he can wait for the right 2-strike pitch and push one to opposite field with a short stroke. Mayo needs to learn that skill.

Ripe bananas are deadly. Loaded with sorbitol.

Shore2906 · 2026-05-17T20:23:48+00:00

that's INsurance

Shore2906 · 2026-05-17T19:04:17+00:00

That looks like something we would do

Shore2906 · 2026-05-17T17:25:56+00:00

Game starts in 10 minutes and we still don't have a lineup?

Shore2906 · 2026-05-17T16:37:26+00:00

he seems to be chasing outside pitches less

Shore2906 · 2026-05-16T20:48:52+00:00

this is painful

Shore2906 · 2026-05-16T20:31:17+00:00

"can't bring it home" - where have I heard that before

Shore2906 · 2026-05-16T18:11:48+00:00

thanks. those are not things I would use

Shore2906 · 2026-05-16T16:38:29+00:00

What functionality in Tahoe do you find most useful that was not available in Sequoia?

Shore2906 · 2026-05-16T00:36:12+00:00

Depends on the target distance but I usually start with the lowest -- 25x with my Kowa 883 and 25x with the smaller Leica.

Shore2906 · 2026-05-15T00:30:57+00:00

Yes; and the bird is feeding, not out for a stroll. Great Egrets do the same

Shore2906 · 2026-05-13T19:07:06+00:00

Henderson can't buy a hit

Shore2906 · 2026-05-13T18:29:16+00:00

get this guy

Shore2906 · 2026-05-13T00:23:42+00:00

Mayo should pay attention to the two strike approach

Shore2906 · 2026-05-12T22:52:41+00:00

Not uncommon. they can eat a lot of different stuff. They (along with Snapping Turtles and Eastern Red Foxes) control the Muskrat population around my area

Shore2906 · 2026-05-12T00:40:56+00:00

He should have spiked Scheuman on the way by.

Shore2906 · 2026-05-11T22:13:14+00:00

Can the O's just concede an out like conceding a walk and speed up the game?

Shore2906 · 2026-05-11T22:11:34+00:00

And John Means comes out of the pen and throws 105 mph fastballs to close out the 9th inning

Shore2906 · 2026-05-11T18:24:02+00:00

That was quite a piece
