12 September Land RunLand contracts and wetlands work are the routine during the summer. Just to show a variance to previous land updates the top two pictures are of a lease we refused.
Pictures at best show what they do and that is a snapshot that is inherently inadequate to show the good or the bad relative to habitat quality. These two pictures represent the best habitat on this lease we declined. This lease has quail potential in a very good quail region, however we have plenty of quail ground in that area. This region has an overlapping trophy deer production and it is deer habitat that we seek in this region..
Not too far from the land pictured above is one of of our deer leases pictured below that represent the baseline for us to agree to a contract in this locality.
WetlandsThe landowner was insistent we needed a pit blind to improve the hunting so he volunteered his labor and machinery to burry a concrete blind on the north side of the lake to replace blind #1, Henry C, that was washed out by the flood water. This is one of the few duck blind projects Bruce was not involved with. He's building a floater on the side as a back up if the pit blind leaks and fills up with water.
Other pictures from Henry County Wetlands.
From the south dam facing north. A combination of millet and volunteer smartweed.
From the center of the lake bed facing south west. With 30+ days before fall frost there is plenty of growing time to make for full seed heads.
The Other Side"...In his book Redemption, Winograd argues that the idea of pet overpopulation in America is a myth. PETA cites this “overpopulation” as the reason it kills nearly 90 percent of the dogs and cats it takes in. And the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) literally wrote the book on a system of animal sheltering that seems resigned to killing healthy pets out of sheer laziness, instead of looking for alternatives..."
