[size=large]The farmer cut some of field that had not been cut in several years. My friend Chris and I started finding some Civil War Spencer bullets and casings. You see all those little green bushes out in the field? That is poison sumac. I wore gloves today and tried to be real careful and not catch it again. [/size]

[size=large]Here's a pretty good sized stick bug. I was leaning against an oak tree in the shade drinking a Diet Mt. Dew, and this critter crawled down beside my head. I'm holding my pocket knife against the tree on the left, his head is toward the bottom. [/size]

[size=large]I thought this was a pretty wild looking mushroom; even with a good camera it didn't capture the true color, but you can get the drift. The thing was almost irridescent.[/size]

[size=large]While I was down detecting in the just-cut field and not finding a whole lot, Chris went in the woods and got into a little hot spot finding these 8 gnarly looking whole Spencers and about 16 bullets and casings.[/size]

[size=large]This is Chris' finds for a 3 1/2 hour hunt. [/size]

[size=large]My humble recoveries; the round thing is an old pocket watch cover. Thanks for looking.[/size]
