  1. Corn is mature. Quite a few fields being chopped in town. I will stuff a popup in the corn and camouflage it, just in case I need to hunt here with the bow. I probably won't unless a buck shows up on the cameras.
  2. That's one tough, mean little critter! Weasels are pretty fierce too!
  3. I don't think the goal was to have the buck eat the cotton ball. I think the goal was to get the buck to stand in a spot where he could be shot and killed. The picture seems to indicate he was successful.
  4. What's the sauce on top? Pico? Looks tasty!
  5. Love the detail in the wing feathers!
  6. That sounds awfully good. Tons of work, but it's so worth it. What do you put grandma's chili sauce on?
  7. I wasn't shooting them in a cage. I've shot over a dozen and about 20% sprayed. I was 15-20 yards with a full choke. I am a turkey hunter, so I know my shotgun pretty well. Again, just my experience.
  8. I have had I have had the opposite experience with skunks. I have shot plenty with #6s and they usually don't spray. On the other hand, I have thrown a tarp over many skunks and haven't been sprayed moving them to the farm pond. That's not to say it couldn't happen. Just my experiences, not a strong recommendation either way.
  9. If it's half sour, then there's another half to account for. Half pumpkin spice? Half sweet and half sour? If it's just half sour, then the other half is "pickle". But then they are only half pickle, and that's no good. Just curious.
  10. Where you at Biz? Sox win. Yanks lose. Give the people what the want! They want that magic number!
  11. I don't think it's too late at all, especially since it's going to be 80 until at least November. As for seeding, you should be fine if you plant before a good rain. I would probably seed at a pretty heavy rate though.
  12. Thanks for getting the gang back together John. Cheers!
  13. Glad to hear it. Hope the local herd likes it. Now if you can keep Florence from pizzing all over it...
  14. The Friday brew is Pumpkin? I'm disappointed Biz. I can handle grapefruit, orange, lemon and even blueberry, but pumpkin? It must still be 85 degrees! Me and my 1st Miller High Life of the day are saddened by your beer choice. Go Red Sox.
  15. You are not alone. I have a couple, but use non-sticks and wooden or plastic utensils instead.
  16. I would wager a fair amount that the trees were 1) rotten 2) worked on by a pileated woodpecker 3) taken down by a combination of wind & gravity.
  17. That's funny. I decided to plant the outside edges in clover next year, since the tree roots seem to steal alot of moisture and nutrients from whatever I plant. I left a strip of grass, goldenrod and green ash saplings for cover in the past. I think I'm going to get rid of that and replace it with corn. Over time, I'm hoping that a double row of semi-dwarf apple trees will act as a screen.
  18. There are soybeans where the corn and beans overlapped. In most spots the corn was too thick to plant anything else. I considered mixing the two, but wanted a pure stand of corn as a screen. The plots are set up as strips that I rotate. Next year I will do a bigger section of corn, soybeans overseeded with brassicas, a strip of rye and clover, and try a strip of pumpkins too. I will also add a few apples to the 6 I have already planted.
