    That’s awesome! I would bet the one Roadkill I picked up this year was 10’ tall. Of course it was one of the trees my buddy had picked out..go figure.

    Incredible turkey hunt bobcat encounter

    I took a "mentored youth" (a debatably cool PA thing where an underage kid can go out before getting a license, where the mentor carries the gun at all times till they are in a solid position ready to shoot) who was like 8 years old turkey hunting. It was the kid's first hunt and he was so...

    What Habitat Work Did You Do Today?

    What did you graft it over to? Or did you just cut it off in preparation for grafting? I want to get started on grafting but my pears are just starting to break their leaves out..weather looks promising though

Threw them in the ground in good spots with plenty of sun/water. Neither grew an...

    What Habitat Work Did You Do Today?

    Burned a small section of the field above my house. Been a few years since it had good clover in it and was getting weedy and overrun with grass.
