Trails

Bush-hogged  4+ miles of trails yesterday and the day before.  If you can believe it I’ve taken great pains to avoid the vast swatch of milkweed and other plants favored by the local pollinators.  As a consequence the wildlife openings and the trails will be touched-up in October following the migration.  

You know, it’s funny how the deer seem unfazed by a clattering diesel and loud machinery.  A handsome velvet buck stood in the trail long enough to give me the hairy eyeball and a doe saw fit to observe at a distance.  No such thing during hunting season.  They read the regulations after-all.  Go figure.
