I love the fact you say things like that when I'm out in the woods with these animals on a daily bases ...I go out hunting 1 1/2 before day light and sometimes an hour after...I will go out at mid night to track a deer and Gut it in the dark surrounded by eyes with nothing more than a knife in my hand and I go to camp to bow hunt bear ...all by my self...you are rich, really ..I challenge you to do what I do with two bad knees and arthritis...It slows you down a bit...but bring plenty of TP because I have no doubt that if you ever have some of the encounters I have had over the years...you'll need it...

any time won't have an effect this growing season but next it will ...makes the berries sweeter and if I recall grassess and clovers as well..remember...lime is a particle to particle amendment...in that it needs to bind with the soil and it takes up to 6 mos to FULLY work... quick acting lime is stretching it's claims just a bit...it really takes about 3-6 weeks so your looking at a month to two months. https://www.thespruce.com/fast-acting-lime-for-turf-improvement-2152835

You can not kill whats not there!...don't you know...lol

bramble patches...yes it works

OK stone ..hey Add blind to delusional as well because..... the many many times Shirley and I would be standing at Tell Em Where You got It shop...because she was always working the counter...We both never went out to actually look at the coyote haul guys would stop in with.. many usually from around the Castile areas or Canisteo if I recall but a damn good many from the Wayland,Dansville, Mt Morris areas as well... I understand...if you and your dad haven't seen it, well never happens... there are few coyotes out there. Hey I'm done ...until the next I told you so a rises that is,I can wait.

Really because 20 years ago sheep farmers and beef farmers were having a hard time with loosing stock and raising hell with the DEC and more than 20 years ago ...actually 35 years ago I was riding bike nightly in Avon NY watching them darting in and out of yards and across the road everywhere in the village.. are you even 30 yet Biz?

Being a girl has NOTHING to do with it... To be honest my BIGGEST issue with them is the cluelessness the humans display in realizing just how big a predator they actually are. I don't know what it is...growing up with the road runner cartoons, the images of the little skittish western coyotes...These are NOT the same animal and when they move in on a area ...they displace other predators and prey.

I'll refrain from laughing....

BTW... I no longer have a problem...I get a couple a year but nothing like we use to and how do I know they are gone? The incessant night shots heard from my, always open 24/7 bedroom window...The crazy # of fox on our place and raccoon ...even though an average of 20 are taken here every year..Also the increase in turkey and birds of prey... see even with the increase in fox...with the coyotes gone there is an increase in prey so the other predators can increase in #'s. So for my observations...they deserve the bad rap they have...and I'll gladly be woken up every night if need be with a hardy THANK YOU to the guys doing the shooting...if that's what keeps them in someone elses "back forty"
-
Stone your right and thanks for cluing him into that...They train coyote and actually bear dogs on a place near camp... Royal PITA for me when I bow hunt down there..they aren't quite...but I think perhaps less noisy then their trainers...Now during 4 H and we are talking years ago there were several guys in this area trapping and hunting them on one farm ...Just one farm one guy would take 5 a week off, in trap lines. One learns a lot being a 4 H leader in two separate counties...Livingston and Steuben for years. PS.. I won't mention the owners name But I will tell you the area and that is the Atlanta area.. sorry years ago and fact. Now take into account the increase coyotes have had over the years since.

Well The rest of the bigger lower plot got it's first discing this morning...I will let vegitation dry a bit...these insuing rains losen the soils a bit more then attach the harrow drag to the disc and do a light dic with vegitation removal.. then hit the area with a few bags of lime...I'll stake an area for turnips and disc?drag in fertilizer and topp it with a bunch of turnip seed...the rest will wait for the winter grains... when they come in I will disc any new growth while adding fertilizer firm the bed up and then drag in the grains...may top it off with a clover..grabbing a bite then have some trees to plant.
-
This is what happens when someone speaks about an area they are ...wait for it...CLUELESS about...That's probably why you never read me saying anything about down state, the Adirondacks or the Niagara area...Though 8 goes from lake Ontario to the PA border and I have lived and hunted from the Avon area down to Alfred ...have family farmers and logging company owners from Avon to Wellsville. what do I know
-
I have them all over one to a plot...sunken tubs not sunken koi pond,tubs,cattle troll and buckets....and one dug one natural "pond" area
-
They are literally " big business" as it were, for several guys in these upstate areas...There's nothing incidental about the coyotes piled in the back of some guys trucks.

Excuse the morning post I was on the kindle and didn't bother checking...but obviously the point was gotten To the were just being coyotes... like I said just go back a few years and that wasn't the consensuses. It was they fear humans they don't pack up, unless a female with pups groups , they aren't all THAT big, they are ellusive animals yada yada yada.. So let me refresh what YOU posted...not Just a toy dog...but clearly stated they went after a pit bull and a HUMAN had to fight them off...give me just one freaking break on this coyote BS...they are NOT the coyotes they were when they first showed up and as I said would happen and was happening they are getting more and more aggressive. They have radically increased their territory AND comfort zones and they are pack more often and moving in more hours of the day during human activity...wake up

If he was killing chickens lightenin or lrad poisoning makes no difference.

Excellent shots! Tuesday i was on the same road I saved a turtle on a few weeks ago...at nearly the same spot there was another in the middle of the road. This time a snapper... Holy Hanna they are fast...that booger nearly got my fingers.I had to skoot him to the side with my foot...But he was bent on getting latched on to me.
-
Now how can that be true? As i recall..many times by many members: 1. Coyotes do not pack 2. coyotes are more afraid of us then we are of them .....sorry i have a long memory

Huh..I was wrong...it was 6 wick bottles with wicks per kit...so I now have 12 scent wick canisters to use.
