  1. Couldn.t possibly be a lion. Their is no such thing in New York.
  2. Nice. Do I see a father, daughter taxidermy business in the making?, LOL.
  3. I got to agree with Doc on this one WNY.. What one has to do is take a cold hard look at who is running the court systems in this state. Better yet, take a look at who is funding these judges campaigns. Then maybe one may not put much faith in a repeal of the Safe Act. I don't say never give up trying, but their comes a point where people except the fact. Those that don't , are branded trouble makers, nuts or lnieics. Human nature also tends to forget what these politicians did, when election time rolls around.
  4. Congrats Deerthug. Do they go room to room like HS?
  5. This will be made into silage. Looks like something coming up in the bottom, maybe a legume. The mixture will be cut when in the prime protien stages, thus getting a high tonage crop this year and allowing the legume to come on with high yield returns next season. If no legume is in it now, this will be planted to wheat in late summer, to take advantage of the nitrogen, fixed in the soils by the peas. Either way, it's beautiful protien for antler development, doe building, and fawn growth, right now. You should have some nice deer there, come season.
  6. Yes. I have put smaller swarms together in early July. They have to be introduced to each other using a screen divider for a few days, then pull the divider out and they will mix together sucessfully. I choose the best laying queen.
  7. Wooly, Yeah, I'm like a magnet to metal, LOL. I once was at a gathering where a swarm flew into the people yard. It was funny. Everyone was running away, and I ran towards them, and dropped them on a limb. Everyone thought I was nuts. To answer your question:I have seen bees leave in a matter of minutes, or build comb there, for months. Why, I don't know. Culver: Most left over bees that come back once the swarm is gone, were the ones foraging in the field, or out scouting for a new home. They most likely will be lost. Your right on the scent however. I have remove bees off the same locations year after year. I had some friends that would call me faithfully every years having to remove bees from the same fence post. If they set up residence in a house or similar location. Once their remove, it is nearly inpossile to keep a new swarm out. Update on these little rascals: They swarmed out of the hive yesterday. I was doing some yard work and noticed the uproar. I had to drop them with a push lawn mower and install them back in the hive. Upon inspection, I found a moth ball in one corner. Time will tell if they stay.
  8. Seems to be an ideal year for rabbits.
  9. Ganders sold out, so is Buds. Buds said they could get me a used one. I like the idea of not using a primer, not having to fight with fouling in that area. Also like the fact, that a steady spark is ignited in the same area of the charge, unlike 209's give. I wanted to talk to bubba, a past member on here, about these guns. He was a muzzleloader guru!
  10. It's a lot more complicated than this, but without writing a book- Their main intent is to find a new home. The workers, guide the queen, through the communication of "pheromones" traveling to their new home. Scout bees have already lined up a new living quarters, but the queen is not use to flying, so she has to stop and rest at times. Thus I intersept them and place them in a new hive. Most honeybees come from hives these days, so they are happy to return to one.
  11. when their swarming. These little fellas landed on my shop yesterday. Scooped them in a box and slid them in a beehive.
  12. I'd chairish that stand, if it were mine.
  13. Apples, pears, plums, peaches, and cherries all look good here so far. Now, wish for hail free and we'll have a home run!
  14. Always nice to see nature pics. Come to think of it, we don't have a real spot for nature pics.
  15. Finally, someone comes forward with some good info on the Electra. Glad to see u like it. Does this solve the issues with missfire? Anything u don't like about it?
  16. Walmart has several fruit trees here. Some are in bad shape. I offered 50 cents on the dollar for all the trees. The manager claims he can't touch the price until management gives him the ok. I can't understand the business practice they use. At least get 50% out of instead of nothing.
  17. CWD continues in many areas throughout the country. This is great news for future reseach and possible treatment. It's rarely mentioned in NY. anymore, ( intrest in this forum even proves) although I'm not convinced, it's totally elimated. To assume that would be premature.
  18. The increase on the radish, I would strongly agree with. Now I'm not saying, they may draw effectively in all areas, but they were effective here with the drawing power from the start of bow right through muzzleloader season. I believe they fed on them through February this year. The deer still looked in good health at that point. I would think the carb effectiveness would be as good as field corn.
  19. Happys Fathers Day to all the dads. I will be enjoying my grandsons 1st birthday.
  20. The white flag went up a while ago here. Creek backing into my hay fields and lane way this morning. 1 7/10" yesterday. Their is fish swimming in my fields. Should be good for frog season tomorrow.
  21. Doe is a good thing come deer season. Nothing like natural decoys. Evens out the odds a little better, to shoot a nice buck!
  22. Hang in there my friend, all good doors deserve another, LOL.
  23. Is it a commercial door with a horizonal spring above? We'll guess it really makes no difference, the springs are to tight. If it's commercial, be extremely careful. The springs are under a large amount of pressure. They wind them with a rather long bar.
  24. I'm not sure I understand u. Of coarse, I'm in a state of shock from just viewing my swamp land.
  25. The manufactures have got to be loving it right now. The employees must be working several hours overtime.
