Dick & I named this blind "the skull" for obvious reasons.

 Again, like the "Sun Bag." Using my own version next Monday, (hopefully).

I just watched a very interesting film clip on u-tube about a fledgling crow to young to fly yet. It was a young piebald crow that was out of the nest but could not fly yet. It acted tame as could be, it hopped right in to the guys lap and then hopped on to his hand while squaking. The parents were flying around going nuts in this film clip. Crows make good pets if you can get them young enough.

The blind of the skull definitely looks "Medieval"!biggrin  Funny too because I also have names for my blind locations.

Hi Ted, One location that Dick & I call "the big radish" got it's name when we pulled in to check the place out and we saw what we thought were radishes planted in the field. I pulled one out of the ground and Dick & I were amazed at the size of these radishes! Turns out they were turnips instead! So when ever we refer to that spot it is called the big radish, we know instantly where it is located. We have another blind in a valley and the location of the blind is called "the sewing machine blind" because when we first got permission to hunt it a number of years ago there was an old rusted sewing machine very close to our blind. Then we have "the bankers blind" and you guessed it, a banker owns the ground! Then we have the" maniacs blind" this got it's name from the land owner who has a quick temper! When you are talking about a certain area it helps to give it a name, that way your partner knows instantly what area you are talking about. That is an unusual photo with Dick standing by "the skull" the lighting was just right for the photo.

I love that video! Too bad she had no idea how to feed that crow. I sure do and they are such an easy bird to care for! It was fun watching the parents go nuts!

My partner and I use nicknames for our blinds too....if it's a big area then the blinds get directional names; otherwise descriptional names. Far easier than:"You know the blind on the hill?" Idea....

"The Skull" is a good blind name.  I name some of my locations also.  Im guessing most folks do too.

Here are a few locations I hunt regularly:

The Machine Shop
MSU fan
Bitch Walk
Arts Bunker
Coffee Hill
Backdoor Debs
Gun Shop Guy
One Shot Jakes
The Miller Lite Man


Lets hear some more blind names from you fellas.

Bob, do you tear down your blinds when you are done with them? Do they get wrecked by farming operations in the off season, do you ever reuse them in following years?

Pete,

The permanent blinds I reuse every season. My partner and I use them in areas where you can't drive in and get right to the blind site. We leave them standing because we have never had a problem with any one else using them.

In most other areas I use my portable blinds that I keep in the pickup. These I do break down after every hunt and put them back in the truck.

The first two photos are of permanent blinds and the next two are of my portable blind that I setup at each location.
