[Paddlewise] Deck Landers. . .

        "Camprobbers" which are some variant of Blue Jays will land on your
deck. I've had these birds land on my boots while taking a break in Nordic
skiing, and I've seen them fly into an office, land on the desk and eat out
of your hand while I was at Universtiy of Oregon. 

        But Randal Washburne talks about the racoons getting into a
tug-of-war with him over his camp gear. . . trying to pull it away from his
grasp in the middle of the night. 

        I've had squirrels run across my sleeping bag all night long, break
into my knapsack and eat my chocolate bars. . . 

        I think I can get a duck to nest on my bow. . .
