I let these sink last winter, I don't how they will work but thought I would give them a try. I know snag problems but thought I would float a duck just above each at surface. I would appreciate any comments on good or bad, improvements?

Extra benefit that I cannot help but mention..... I mean we all love deer but actually the amphibious are what really needs help. If you put in a water hole especially in the woods without the great predator the fish, then amphibians will greatly benefit. The salamanders are in decline all...

I have the same question, last year I grafted 20 scions and placed in my garden after grafting and 19 became trees with me pampering them for the summer, I transplanted in the winter and all look great as one year old transplants. This year I decided to try the sawdust in the bucket and about...

I have been thinking about buying and planting some different varieties of persimmons. I have freed many American persimmons and even grafted a few to become female but most of them still have lots of fruit hanging on my farm in February almost too late. So my question is what are good...

Drove 30 minutes into Southern Indiana to watch totality. I pulled grandkids out of school to watch with us, we loved it.

I respect your opinion sir, Mr. Turkey Creek, so what is your other four?

I don't understand the logic of the argument about schools having an area of cat litter for students. It seems obvious to me that it is very very low percentage if it does occur. You can find schools and more specifically teachers who make bad decisions on many matters including outrageous...

This video explains how to kill invasive plants by diluting which is better for environment and saves money. I have killed thousands of invasive plants with her advice with great results. Thought I would share since this is the time of year I go to war with the non natives.

I have been ordering with the TWG for years with good results, I hate to hear this bad situation. In fact the last two orders they have added a couple of extra trees, I can't help but think that maybe that is why they are running out of trees if throwing in trees without removing from...

Well I use to say why would I plant fruit trees in several places because why would I want to draw deer away from where I was hunting. So my logic was to draw into one hotspot and then show up and kill the monster but this logic has many flaws. Mostly because you need as many fresh spots as...

In my apple plots the sapsuckers usually stick to one tree and occasionally two. I have decided that instead of wiring that infested tree and pushing the bird to a new untouched tree I just let them do there thing on that tree. It would take incredible effort to wire the trunk of all the...

John I have 60 hives so maybe I can help. Bees often die because they can not move to honey because they cluster and then it gets colder and they have to pull cluster together tighter and pull away from honey. The honey may only be 3 inches away but they won't be able to move to it until it...

Great Pic

Few years ago I would have tree swallows follow me around while clipping clover eating the insects I kicked up. So I did some research and built some boxes for the tree swallows and now I enjoy them as much as the blue birds.
