    Any Birders here?

    There are quite a few different varieties here, I'll get some pics and try to figure out how many. It's all a learning process.

    .22 Garden Gun

    I set my wife up with a 22 and birdshot, I tried it out on a chipmunk at 15 feet and it ran away but it did make a snake bleed about the same distance, slowed it down enough for a second shot. This was through a worn out rifled BBL, I doubt that a smoothbore would be much better . I'd...

    Seeing 2 or 3 is normal for our area every year. We are surrounded by woods and predators and they raid the nests. I guess a guy could put up nesting platforms but we have more than enough as it is .

    Garden!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Lycan are honeyberries fairly hardy ? Man they were looking good , even saw a couple had blossoms. Our raspberries are laid down flat from the snow but they should bounce back.

    Garden!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    This is the first year I had deep tilled in the fall so I was able to make one shallow pass and seed. I don't think there is anything to gain by early seeding , I normally wait for that first flush of weeds before I plant so will see what it looks like in 3-4 weeks . My Mom always planted a...

    Morel mushrooms

    Most years us hillbillies are a couple weeks later than the banana belt. I see people comment about watching for the Lilacs to bloom, ours have little buds that look like this pic but roughly 50% of them turning purple. Does this seem normal for other areas of the state ?
