Typhoon Tip Posted August 16, 2024 Share Posted August 16, 2024 I dunno 'bout all that 'red flagging' stuff .. sounds sort of click bate-y but, i don't actually have a problem with the parenthetic, ' rapid fire frequency' - at least in principle. it fits the emergence of the velocity biased hemisphere during winters, a leitmotif that kicked in about about 12 or 15 years ago and has been raging more than not ever since. the higher speed basal state would suggest faster system translation speeds, so naturally ..they don't hang around as long, and cycle between them quicker.

Expand The other differences are the longer hind legs and furry "snowshoe" feet of the lynx, the former being much easier to spot. They are slowly replacing bobcats north to south in Maine, with both species occurring on the same range mostly at the line of advance. When we lived in Fort Kent (76-85) only bobcats were being trapped there. Those golf course animals look like bob-kittens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorEastermass128 Posted August 23, 2024 Share Posted August 23, 2024 Lost my dad to cancer yesterday after a short three month battle. He passed away peacefully at MGH. Last week, we were just talking about tuning up his snow blower for this season. Losing a parent, and one that I was so close to, is so hard. Going to miss the big guy. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
