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

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.

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.

Column: Time for tax reform

ST. PAUL - For more than a decade, Minnesota has spent more than we raised in revenue, cut essential public services and increased the burden on property taxpayers. State leaders borrowed billions from our school and pushed Minnesota's fiscal challenges off for another day. It is time for a change.

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: It’s time for the tough to get going

WORTHINGTON — When the going gets tough, the tough get going. I wonder who can be credited for that saying?

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. When I think about the diversity in nature, I continue to be overwhelmed. We have a certain number of fish species in southwest Minnesota and I know them all to a point.

SCOTT RALL COLUMN: These turn out better than you would ever expect

Now that the pheasant hunting season is over, it’s time to try a few new recipes and some old favorites for wild game in my freezer.
