The deer have been using the clover field most every evening. Between 10 and 30 are coming out. The quail have been calling.I usually hear 3 calling back and forth.
There's a new brood of ducks at the wetlands. They may be Mallards, I haven't seen
the hen. The ducklings were feeding against the bank and headed for the cattails when they saw me & the dogs. The dogs wanted to chase them but I called them back.
It's just amazing how much activity there is. I'm going to set up a blind and get some pictures. Last Friday evening our friends, George and Cindy, came over and got the tour on the jetney.
After the tour I cooked them some deer meat and vegs.George made a new friend.Cindy gave me a hand with the cooking.I somehow was able to get this group shot. I got this planter to use from my friend Jerry.I'm going to try and get my food plots planted this week. I sprayed round up last weekend and killed off the vegetation. This planter will put the seed in the ground. I was hoping for a little more rain to soften the ground. I picked up my seed last nite . I got some minerals to make the antlers grow.
We went to Mike and Becki's(son & daughter-in-law) house Sunday and checked out their garden.They have a guard - because something got the corn.They live in Arlington, VA. This is what the frogs look like down there.Mike is getting ready to be a bee keeper. He put these bee houses together.

Cannot believe we lived in Arlington VA for 18 years with no family nearby; now we've moved away and your son lives there. Really enjoy reading your blog and congratulations on becoming a grandfather again.
ReplyDeleteThanks! Having fun with the grandkids.
ReplyDeleteWhere do you live now?
We moved across country to southern California, we're in northern San Diego County, a small town called Fallbrook. Tom's family is mostly in California; that's why we moved out here.
