I have motion camera out to see what is happening, one night I have Booboo bear and the next these two wonder in eating the tops of the clover and alfalpha… and then a taste of oats to finish of their evening stroll. Also the tracks travel past the Corn and peas in the garden… Oh well everyone has to have a snack too..
Busy Busy lots of produce off the garden, beans, carrots, cucumbers, dill, garlic, coriander, basil, making pickles for the hunters this fall and next spring. Hot bowl of soup and sandwich with home grown pickles makes a lunch break worth while in waterfowl season.
Well swathing has begun in the area. This is a HAPPY for Canadians large slough just at east end.. then driving along and I see a huge flock of Canadians lift of one slough heading near the swathing.. they must have radar set up for when the swathers start on the cereal crops… another farmer told me today they are landing in the peas that are not combined and they are making a Royal mess tramping it down so pickups wont pull up into header…. Ducks are showing on the ponds now, good numbers of teal and the uncolored mallards… We will be whackn and stackn pretty soon…
Stopped at Holmans Taxidermy today, him and Kerri sitting drinking coffee not a normal sight. He’s busy mounting Bears Bears and more Bears, but do you see the Moose Wow what a Monster. It always a treat to stop and get busted by Scott. All know him and I show our best when we meet!!!
A nice doe and fawn on motion camera out behind the yard.. both look in good shape and they are walking along path beside the red clover, a favourite of them both.
Do do you see a Bears Butt? Picking Saskatoons with many bear prints in the mud. You could see where they sat and pulled berries off bushes and where they stood high and pulled them off.. With NO WILD BERRIESthis U-pick makes only restaurant in area for bears.
Wow this young moose has been hanging around for a while, we have seen prints around the back but finally he walked past a camera.. So nice to see.
May Motion camera photos show how thin the whitetail were after winter. Looks like the one doe is heayy in calf. Every year we have a doe fawn out back , we are seeing big and small foot prints in the garden near the peas.. I have no problem sharing as long as they dont eat them all
This is the second hatch of Robins in the same nest. I guess I’ll be watching the strawberry patch because I am not wanting to share too many berries. The hunters will be complaining there is no Strawberry Shortcake for desert!
Last weekwe had bear scat, this week we have foot prints down the lane and across the garden to the Raspberries which I hav started to pick. I share with the birds but not sure if I will share with Mr Bear. We may hav to bring out the 410 to tell him to stay away! No wild berries this year the 2 year olds are hungry.
