I have no idea what the caution tape in the woods behind Choppy was for. Perhaps it was just there to make me think about what sort of things in the woods could merit caution tape.

😮🤔 hmmmmm……random Caution Tape. To me it looks like the field has been planted & a warning to humans not to go stomping…

Oh, that’s a good call! I bet you’re right. It was gone this last weekend (which I noticed because Choppy scared up a turkey just beyond where the tape is in this picture)

Caution tape! My imagination runs wild – NCIS or CSI sort of things! Did they find something there? Ooh stay away….ugh!

Based on the comments here, I think our imaginations are getting the best of us – it seems it was probably something to do with the field beyond it being planted or sprayed. Alas, we will have to wait another day for a CSI: Rural Wisconsin.

LOL! I will watch it is they find a main character to cast for CSI: Rural Wisconsin – please ensure Choppy and Schooner play roles in it too! Have a great Thursday ahead Sarah and always so nice to chat with you 🙂

It was – though I think others here have solved it – I’m guessing the field was newly planted and the farmer didn’t want people wandering out into the field from the trails through the woods.

Marking off a problem-plant area – a potent stinger perhaps?

Could be – it wasn’t blocked off this last weekend, though (Choppy scared up a turkey just beyond where the tape is in this picture). I think, looking at what other people said, the farmer had just planted or sprayed the field and didn’t want hikers or bikers in the woods to wander out there.

The tape is unlikely to deter anything other than a damp lettuce – so I have no idea what it is doing there either! 😀
But I like how Choppy Owns the path. 😀

I’m pretty sure she thinks she owns everywhere we walk regularly (these woods included).

Maybe the farmer put it there to stop folks crossing the field? Darn those four-wheelers! 😉

I think you’re probably right, though it was gone this last weekend so maybe just for a limited time. There are mountain bike trails through these woods. Not quite as destructive as ATVs can be, but still bad when it is wet out like it has been.

I hope you were on the outside of the yellow tape and not the inside

I never thought about it – perhaps we were on on the inside and just didn’t realize it!
