Stop in for a cup of coffee

Lost another duck yesterday night that makes two in two days. Monday morning one had its head missing in the house (coup) and then yesterday another with its gut chewed out. Not sure what it is maybe a Weasel?

Coon , possum, fox? Ton of fox around here.
 

I have possums around here and I think I took care of the fox problem last year. Just weird that it happened in the house so I added a mesh door to it yesterday that I can close at night. Find out in a few if it worked. Just weird the carcass was left there and not a lot of it consumed.

Cats pick like that
 
Just weird, been raising them every spring for 6-7 years and this is a first, had foxes take them, snapping turtles take them in the pond, hawks but this has me stumped. I cold put a trap out there but one of the cats will probably get killed.
 
On a good note put the sail panels in the Dart and when I was using it yesterday the rear right tire smelled like brakes so I think the rear was taking more of the brake load than the fronts. I put an adj prop valve in to adjust the load. I guess it will be trial and error to get the rear disks dialed in.

That shouldn't take much to adjust ray. I'd say bias the front by 20 %

Good deal, I didn't get much done yesterday, , I took my riding mower into the wooded part of my property and proceeded to get it stuck. Anybody got an ATV winch ? Lol
 
I just have to do it. It was not horrible without it but it needed it. It was kind of like stopping a boat. The more I use it the more I notice things. Better to find it now. I do need to do something with the gauges. Just dash wants around 500 to do the dash pad with my dashpad and 14-16 week turnaround. Not for me. I am thinking gauge cups mounted on a piece of ? slipped under the das pad above the heater control or make something out of tubing and bondo! I noticed some more wood screws in the faceplate just under the dash pad the PO had put in. He loooooved wood screws on that car.
 
Hey Hops...I just stopped in for a minute. You have your self a weasel. He can get in where a mouse can get through and he will be back every night until they are gone. They like the blood guts and brains. They will take the head off and drink all of the blood but not interested in the meat. I grew up raising chickens, turkeys and ducks.

That's kind of what I WAS thinking. The new door worked at least there were none dead this morning. Might just have to get this bugger on a fish hook net or the big rat sticky pads.
Thanks Tike.
