Inspected and cleaned nest boxes today. Fifty of them.
Evicted four families of mice and in a Caddy Shack moment Jill was attacked by a squirrel hiding in a box.
After three decades of building these this is the final nest box design. Constructed of cedar they’re very durable. The right side wall flips-up for cleaning or inspection. Took a page from Henry Ford's book on manufacturing - interchangeable parts make for efficient repairs. Affordable housing for cavity nesting songbirds.
Our woods was thinned during COVID and now that the canopy has been opened all sorta natural regeneration is happening. Like these spruce seedlings.
The resident pileated woodpeckers are disassembling this snag.
Recently deceased coyote. I wonder what the backstory is.
Fetched a load of firewood from the north forty. Including a Smirnoff Ice bottle from the ditch. Not from my tribe.
A whitetail that didn’t survive winter. I wonder about the backstory.
Me and my side kick catching some rays with a Guatemalan Lager
