Scott Rall Column: What’s more fun than a good dive?
I was very surprised at the number of reader contacts I received about my column a few weeks back on the American Coot. I got lots of calls, emails and stops on the street. There are still plenty of them around town but they are no longer walking around in the snow.

SCOTT RALL COLUMN: Disappearing pasture land accelerates
All across Minnesota and the upper Midwest for that matter, pasture land is disappearing. It is not getting sucked up into an alien spaceship or anything like that but it is disappearing nonetheless. What is making it disappear? The answer is some more endless rows of corn and beans.

SCOTT RALL COLUMN: American coots are ugly, but cute
WORTHINGTON — I think it matters very little if you love them or hate them, this animal will always find a way into your field of vision. In fact, if you live in Worthington, you will very often find them under the wheels of your car.

SCOTT RALL COLUMN: Why do we value our resources so lightly?
WORTHINGTON — So what is a walleye, a deer, or a duck worth? To me, they are worth thousands of dollars. Let me explain.

SCOTT RALL COLUMN: Trees, taxes, wildlife habitat all have deadlines
WORTHINGTON — The only person who isn’t neck deep in work today is the person who is not responsible for even one tree. I drove to my office on Thursday to write this column and I told my Mrs. that I had never seen anything like this in 50-plus years.

SCOTT RALL COLUMN: Thirty in thirty is a fabulous score
WORTHINGTON — There are some folks who can remember a weather event from 30 years ago, or if it snowed last Halloween. I, for one, cannot. If there is not a record kept, I don’t do well in total recall of those types of events.

SCOTT RALL COLUMN: Where on earth is Wally’s Wood Duck World?
WORTHINGTON — Where on earth is Wally’s Wood Duck World? This is the name of a pheasant hunting spot Thad Lambert and I used to frequent east of Worthington. It was a shallow slough that never had any water in it in the fall, but seemed to be a paradise for a large number of wood ducks in southwest Minnesota during the spring and summer months when it was still wet.

SCOTT RALL COLUMN: Gun safety: Don’t ask why, just do it
WORTHINGTON — Dad doesn’t hunt, mom wouldn’t even hold a gun and junior has no interest, why on earth would I send my child to a firearms safety training program? What a great question and one I would like to take a few paragraphs to answer.

SCOTT RALL COLUMN: SCI means more than its initials
WORTHINGTON — If you visit the Sioux Falls Zoo and, if you are like me, you will get wide-eyed when you get a chance to look over all of the different wild animals that are displayed in the lobby area. Many, if not most, of these large mammals will be from other continents.

Is there anything a dog can’t do?
WORTHINGTON — Training a dog is pretty fun stuff. When I see dogs do certain things, I just wonder how they can be taught the wide variety of tasks they seem to do so well. If you think about it, there is an exhaustive list of things a dog can be trained to do.

SCOTT RALL COLUMN: Flames, barbecue and the outdoor connection
WORTHINGTON — The human/animal interaction is an ancient attraction handed down for hundreds of thousands of years. We cannot make it go away, but we can ignore it or deny it exists in us.

SCOTT RALL COLUMN: What about the frog?
WORTHINGTON — When I write an outdoor column, which I have done just a handful short of 500 times, I often wonder if the subject matter is as interesting to the readers as it is to me.

SCOTT RALL COLUMN: Cool by a big measure
WORTHINGTON — Last week, I wrote about a spearing outing that took place on the Whitefish Chain of Lakes in north central Minnesota.

SCOTT RALL COLUMN: Spearing: Not giving up on this effort
Last week, I explained how I had turned over the management of our bee hives to someone much better at it than I was. I would have stuck it out until I could have done it myself, if I hadn’t become so dangerously allergic to additional bee stings. What I am not giving up on is my novice spearing career.

SCOTT RALL COLUMN: Beekeeping: It’s worth it to try, try again
WORTHINGTON — If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again. This is what I did with my attempts at amateur beekeeping. My friend, Casey Ingenthron, along with Les Johnson made about a $750 investment in some bee hive components and glamorous beekeeping apparel. Casey built the hives and we ordered the interior frames and other components from a distributor.

SCOTT RALL COLUMN: Hunting season ends with good dogs, friends
WORTHINGTON - The end of another short week greets us today. With both Christmas and New Year's Day falling on works days, it made for two short weeks for many folks. But the holidays are over now and, with them, much of the rushing around that accompanies them. I am totally fine with that.
