Going to hog hunt at my place during the eclipse . Never done that before . Really though , I doubt the animals [ besides me ] will care .

Yeah, curious. I noticed a few bunnies cam out as if it were dusk, so maybe you had some luck?

It was not that big of a thrill , got dusk like for about 5 minutes . The only thing I really noticed was the temp dropped 8* . I did get a large boar at 9 pm Fri night . Three large herds of hogs spent most of Fri evening and night on my neighbors wheat and would not come the extra 300 yards to my feeders . The eclipse peak was about 1:20 for me , it did not seem to make a diff for any animals including my dog .
