backyard

Some have seen the pics of the Great Horned Owls we have been seeing almost every day now in the backyard. Last night as I am bringing two of the girls home from softball practice, I get a text from my youngest asking when I am going to be home? I asked why and she sends back, there are 7 or 8...

So for the past week, we have been hearing a screeching/whistle type sound in the backyard and I have been trying to figure out what the hell it was... I thought it was a screech owl, but it just didn't sound right. My youngest and I went back yesterday and couldn't see anything but could still...

Rototilled it last week, tilled it again today and put in some pellitized lime and 13-13-13. I put in some of that Mean Bean stuff with Lee and Tiff on the package because I got it cheap and wanted to see how beans would do. Can someone turn the second pic please?

I put a small plot behind the house yesterday. Mowed it close last week, rototilled, limed, fertilized and planted Evolved Habitats blend of forage oats and chicory. Now I am just waiting for it to rain... If you look close you can see the double ladder stand Sami killed her buck out of last year.

I moved a trail cam to the back yard 2 nights ago for the first time this year. I put some ear corn down by the mineral lick and to my surprise I got the best buck picture of the year not 50 yards behind the house....... Too bad I don't have any corn around my house this year.

I have had this target up since early summer. I woke up this morining and look out into the backyard to see it destroyed! I have to assume this was a deer attack. Anyone else ever have this happen? Oh, he left without eating the corn that was about 10 yards away.:smiley_baby:
