I've removed what I think are six shrews so far and there's one around today. Might be one of the same ones again. I tried dabbing an acrylic paint marker on the back of the last one I caught but the paint wouldn't stay on its fur. I wonder how field biologists do this 🤔
I left a live catch trap for a few hours yesterday and something bullied it around, tripping it and moving it out of place. I think I might set up a webcam just to see what's going on when I'm not at my desk.

I caught another #shrew alive! This one climbed up my wool boot, over my sock, and up my pant leg! WTF!?! I jumped up, it ran off, and then immediately came nosing out from under the radiator. Out it goes! That's two today. My spouse thinks this is funny, she's making up rhymes. She laughed that they coming for me. I'm considering laying snap traps...

Patrick McConnellPeakist, my peak bagging app focusing on the Northeastern US has been updated to v2.3. Give it a try!
A few minor tweaks and a new Catskill Fire Tower Challenge for 2026. Includes two new* towers!
*The towers are old but their inclusion on the list is new.
Big feature update also in the works. That one will ship soon-ish.
Always looking for new lists to add. Hit me up if you have suggestions.
Not voles. Not mice. SHREWS.
Caught another alive today and got a good look at it.
I put this one outside into leaves under the side shed not covered by snow and returned to my desk to find another noisily exploring near the radiator.

If you’re a user or potential user of my peak bagging app Peakist, there is an update coming soon to add the 2026 Catskill Fire Tower Challenge with it’s 2 new towers.
I had hoped this could go out with a larger feature update that is coming along but I’m going to push the Tower list update and the new features will follow after.
