You're exactly right five star does it get much better notice I said much better. I have a few tips for you if you don't mind taking in a few tips. As the gray squirrel is much drier than the fox or red squirrel if you leave the skin on the gray squirrel and sew it back up after taking the guts out it will be a lot more juicier or moist as opposed to cooking the raw meat over the fire. That was tip number one. Tip and fact number two above the nettles is Lamb's quarters. It is way more tasty even Raw and has a lot more vitamins and minerals than the Nettles plus it grows very good in the Eastern Woodlands and you should have been able to find wild onion even right around where you were as I looked at the ground. You may know more than I do but that was just a little bit of what I know. I've actually been doing this since I was 12 years old, I am now 71 and you can do the math. I've been prepping and practicing Bushcraft pretty steadily since 9/11 but it is starting to get a little hard to get out and do what I used to do. Well maybe you'll read this and maybe not it doesn't matter someone may run across it but it is always good to know what you can and can't eat as far as greens go because there is a lot and I mean a lot of stuff on mother Nature's Earth that you can eat, believe it. Thanks for the video I had forgotten to buy you trap so you see you helped bring that back forward in my brain and that's why I watch these things is that sometimes don't use it and it slips back in my mind and someone does it and brings it Forward just like you did so I want to say thank you actually for clearing some cobwebs in my old pea brain. Thanks again for the video don't forget stay vigilant! PS I'm on the East Coast also in the Eastern Woodlands to be exact Southeastern West Virginia or maybe that's West by God Virginia, LOL. Another PS I paused the video before I heard what you said at the end and did you know that you can take pecan bark and boil it down and it has a salty flavor to it so if you had known that then you could have had at least a little salt with your squirrel. Just another little tip.
You know a guy’s got mad skills when he passes over that shiny red lighter lying right there on the forest floor because it’s easier to just build a bow drill fire. Just busting your chops. 😁 Good video.
