  1. Decided to build and replace some of my old bottom boards with this heavy duty version.
  2. Swarms are in search of a new home. With no hive to defend, their less likely to sting.
  3. Looked out my front window, the sky was full of bees . Used the chain saw to settle them onto the same tree limb the other swarm lit days ago on. Twos a charm.
  4. I've never seen them in the grass, like this before Always find them in areas of brush and along hedge rows. They also bed in heavy clover in my hay fields.
  5. I wish I would have grafted some of the old time apple trees like Spies ,Cortland, Greenings, Baldwin, and Red Delicious onto these new fangled trees, they call apples, now adays. Apples have lost their flavor, for the most part. I don't enjoy eating local grown ones. I also think, they have priced themselves way out of the market. I know costs are way up, but when does an item get to be not worth the money to purchase?
  6. I believe the same. I also think the food sources are more plentiful during a good rain, out in the open. Especially in open areas on sod where worms and grubs come to the surface. A smorgasbord of good eating. In late July through September, the turkey walk my second cutting hay fields in search of grasshoppers which are plentiful.
  7. I seen a big buck in my yard, last evening. He doesn't seem to mind it.
  8. Not to rain on anyone's parade; Past generation farmers use to say, if you see one rat, you have ten.
  9. Bees have settled in. Carrying pollen into their new home, this morning.
  10. In my shirt sleeves. Settled on a tree limb. Now in a new hive body on new beeswax. Nice gentle Italian swarm.
  11. I call in Jakes most of the time. Guess my gobbler call must be damaged.
  12. Blind has limited visibility. Can get away with more movement in a blind, that's for sure. Vinyl smell , blinds stink. Nice in the rain though. Restricted to that area the blinds set up at. I can sand my woodworking projects in a blind. Six of one, half a dozen of another.
  13. On a clear day, I like to be out at 4:30. Some mornings, I've had birds bumping the ground by 4:45. least bit of light showing in the east.
  14. Side of my earlobe.
  15. We have young males come in, every so many years. It's a big deal to see a bear in this area.
  16. Some really good videos on You Tube . If I lived in bear country, would be a very worth while investment.
  17. Are you guys talking about a sealed jar or after the jar is opened? I would think the pickling would preserve the meat, as long as it it in the frig. Anything pickled, keeps a long time in the frig. IDK, maybe meats different, pickled.
  18. The wildlife been kicking up here, after the snow melt and especially since some green up. The temps are better, mid April for turkey hunting. May warms up and can slow it all down. Talked to a lot of hunters that agree, turkey season should start in New York, mid April, just after the youth season, week before.
  19. This states actions never surprises me anymore.
