I live in an area that has had high deer densities since the late 60's. Alder and Ilex (winter berry) are virtually the sole surviving shrub species on my farm. The odd grey and red osier dogwoods survive here and there. I want to start planting native shrubs (dogwoods, ninebark, highbush...
My daughter's boyfriend got his first deer ever Tuesday-with a bow no less. Enjoyed our first sample tonight. Tartare with farm fresh egg #buckbuckmoose
Well, I just ordered a gazillion AAs (rayovac alkaline) so what about putting them in with high energy in booster? When I use these AAs up I'll get the 4D backs.
Yesterday I put out my J-1422 that takes 12 AAs with a 6D power pack. It took about 50 pics which were sent by the cellular cam. They were the only two cameras I had out. I went out to check some settings this morning because I didn't like the quality of some pics. I was greeted with a dead...
Canadian Wild Rye is one of the deadly "mean seeds." Keep your dogs out of it- it can be inhaled and the subsequent infections are often deadly. It should be illegal to plant but it is a frequent component of various habitat mixes. I'm not sure if Virginia Wild Rye has the same risks.
Knehrke- Thanks for trying to apply science and reason to a topic overtaken by emotion and weird politics. What I don't understand is that these same people will believe a soil test, often conducted by land grant universities (commie organizations for sure). Then they actually apply lime and...
They eat native lupine on my place- especially the flower buds. But they eat things on my place that they don't eat everywhere; I have high deer density and poor native browse.
I don't think I'd plant ag clovers in a prairie mix. You don't want the competition with the natives and you'll be using fire to maintain it. You could add lupine to that mix for another deer-favored forb.
Fortunately, Governor Evers issued another mandate. This really shouldn't be political- governors of both parties have issued mask mandates across the country. While the details of how to make masks more effective are subject to change as we get more knowledge, there is NO doubt but that masks...
To each their own but please think twice about building any kind of road. I hunt a distant stand on my property during the gun hunt- about a 1/2+ mile walk through alders and muck with an occasional respite on an "oak" island. In the driest summers I can get a UTV out there on a half-ass trail...
Do you mean the 60v flex volt? I have a bunch and love them, but I mostly do odd jobs and small projects- not dedicated construction. The chain saw is awesome for habitat work and small jobs, and as a spare saw but not for cutting cords of wood. I have the jig saw, reciprocating saw, grinder...
