Morning RC
Most hunters around here are saying the deer will be in the open fields looking for food as most of the wild apple/acorn crops failed due to the Gypsy moth caterpillar infestation we had this year.
Sure the leaves came back, but not the fruit on the trees.
So they'll be looking for something to eat-might be a hard winter on them if there's not the fall fat put on the bones.
I have a 1/4 ton of extra corn, might just get a bit of molasses to mix a little treat up for them/then again I did see a big old apple tree that got missed, can't recall where off hand.
A couple of years ago I picked up a few bushels of deer apples, dropped down the sugar bush trails for them, it was a treat that disappeared daily by the herd that winters in the sugar bush.
I saw the other day the resident flock of turkeys, 3 hens and the 8 chicks that are growing up now.
It's great to see after the Jack Russel that bordered the property passed away.
(Little rat killer would kill the chicks off every year-owner would just chuckle when it returned covered in blood-"Oh it must of being out killing turkeys again") I'd just be biting my tongue-inside I'd be
Just pissed me off when somebody claims their dog doesn't roam-(thinking) please explain why it goes around the hamlet every Tuesday ripping the bags of trash open and I see it running on the property.
Never harmed it-just wished it another life.
Funny thing just happened-Max was a fussing and the Mrs said "Look there's the flock of turkey's by the sand pile"
Sure enough there they were-they took flying off across the bay. To survive now for another day.
