I have a tree with whiteish berries I cant find on the web. Somebody know what it is? Doesn't look like any chokecherry I've seen. Eugene Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Thought I found a crab apple tree. Went back today for a closer look. It's a plum. I think a native plum. Can anyone confirm it? Wasn't much flesh on the stone. Took a bite and talk about astringent! It needs released. Gotta work on that when my saw has a new fuel line installed. Sent from my...

Pulled the card from one of my cams and I've got 600 videos of greenbrier. Not happy. It grew right in front of the camera in the span of 2 weeks. Eugene

My post in the trailcam section resulted in a reply that the bird in question is catching insects. I would prefer my camera not be a perch. I was thinking a t-post with a bolt through a pipe nipple stuck in one of these clamps would do the trick. Anyone have better ideas? Eugene

A bird likes my trailcam over a clover plot. I'm going to install some bird spikes to keep it off. Have a lot of tail videos. Eugene

I bought a nut package from soil and water conservation district tree sale. One of the trees is butternut. I didn't tube last years tree so am unsure if this is truly butternut or black ealnut. I have a lot of squirrel planted black walnut. Whole tree. https://flic.kr/p/2gzExgw Leaf top...

I have a half acre plot of medium red and white clover. Lots of purple leaves in the clover. Research says it's usually caused by Boron deficiency. Today I bought a 4 lb. box of 20 Mule Team Borax. I filled my 25 gal. sprayer while pouring in the Borax. Mixed in the Clethodim and crop oil and...

Apparently CWD is caused by a bacterium. Eugene https://ljsp.lwcdn.com/api/video/embed.jsp?id=9c682ea3-34f0-4ccb-991c-6e23a5bd073aπ=b1d70b5c-8e54-463f-9ced-1ca62c173276

I saw this and thought some here would like it. Eugene

I have a Fimco 25 gallon spot sprayer sprayer that always leaves spray mixture in the bottom that it can't suck out. I decided to remedy it today. I was at Menards and bought a couple things. This thread was the inspiration for doing this...

Not even March 1st and I'm checking Menards and Walmart for trees. Got my Ogle Co. IL soil and water conservation district annual tree sale pamphlet and planning what to plant and where I'll plant it. Eugene

I bought a "hay rack" to gain a little elevation with my ground blind. Future plans are to put a box blind on it. Right now I would like to treat the wood so it doesn't weather much worse. For me shotgun deer season it the weekend before Thanksgiving. Is it too late to treat with boiled linseed...

After playing around I figured out a way to post photos hosted on flickr. Video works the same way also. Open Flickr and go to the picture you want to post. Click on share. The share button is an arrow that swooshes to the right. Click on BBCode. Select the size you want to post in the...

I have three that I don't recognize. Just showed up the last few years. First one stands from 5 to 6 feet tall with yellow blossoms. Where the leaves meet the stems is a puddle of water. 20170825_165055[1] by Eugene McMahon, on Flickr 20170825_165104[1] by Eugene McMahon, on Flickr Second...

I hate it when a squirrel sits on my camera to groom and swishes his tail enough to trigger the camera several times, just out of view. Sometimes I see a fuzzy shadow at the edge of the video. Once I had a view of an eyeball. Eugene.

I tilled my half acre food plot yesterday (Saturday). Then I spread 5 pounds of white clover, 10 pounds of medium red clover, mixed into 40 pounds of oats. For the oats I just picked up a bag of feed oats at Farm and Fleet. Then I spread 40 pounds of black oil sunflower seeds. Then I raced the...

Anyone remember 80 lb. bags? Anyone miss them? My dad always bought a flare box wagon load of fertilizer in 80 lb. bags. The back end gate was removed so it was easier to access. I was about 6 to 10 years old and I pulled the bags to the back of the wagon from the front while he planted corn...

I saw this blossom on what looked to me to be chokecherry bush. I thought chokecherry blossoms were more like catkins. https://flic.kr/p/U6hVfL What is it? Eugene added picture under edit.

I was reading the label and saw this "For use on: Alfalfa, Asparagus, Bean and Pea (dry shelled)1, Bean and Pea (Succulent)2, Broccoli, Cabbage, Canola, Carrot, Cauliflower (and other Head and Stem Brassica Vegetables)3, Celery, Clover (grown in Idaho, Oregon and Washington only)...
