You all have a private pond there?![]()
Lots of us do. I don't have a pond though; just a stream running through....
The only stream that I have is in my shower!

There's your sign. Longer, thicker legs and rapidly developing comb.Three week old Speckled Sussex, yes I have others, most aren't even enlarging yet.
I have some friends that started Geese Peace. It is a group that advocates humane control of nuisance Canadians. When they nest in business parks or overwhelm cemeteries a friend has federal and state permits to take down goose nests and run the geese off.I think this should be it for her. I have 6 of them in the bator that I took and from what I am reading, this is the end of their laying season. Whew!Laying season is not a fun time for me and geese-she is stubborn and all he does is hiss and follow me. He has never been aggressive-just wants me to know not to mess with his woman!![]()
Smart.I'd have had a heart attack on the spot! I did almost put a hand down on a rat snake that was hanging on a mortar joint between two blocks of the basement wall, though. I'm so paranoid about snakes in the house that I actually shot one inside the house last year in the basement. Came in once to find a shed skin in the Venetian blinds...'bout 6' long. DW don't know about that one.
I got lucky this year with the mower, so far. I'd pulled the battery last year & set it in the basement, on the charger, where it stayed 'til yesterday. I'd also run both tanks dry, so I had no gas-turned-to-shellac in the carbs to contend with.
I re-installed the battery yesterday, poured <a cup of gas in each tank, & hit the switch. I cranked a while 'til the fuel lines were full, and fired up. No problem; didn't even get hung up & have to pull it out.
I'm glad I was forced to take a welding class. It was a requirement at Ford for all skilled trades to learn to weld. It was because they were going to eliminate the welding trade so everyone had to do their own welding. I wasn't fond of the class and it was the only class that I didn't make an A in. He gave me a B.The skill of welding, never tried but I'm sure if I ever learned it would be a priceless skill set to add to the kit.
Depends on the hen but usually, they get top notch results.How well do eggs hatch under a broody hen? I'm about to have 2 coops and thought about getting some hen to do some hatching...

49ers.It's private till the state finds out about it. I had to shut mine down due to the well being right at the edge of it. With city water in now I don't have to worry about it. Mines more of a long ditch that the gold miners put in back in the 1940's for their dredging. Huge gold mining here in those days.

I'll see if I can find a video of her getting attacked by a gander. There was an injured goose that I helped catch and rehome.
.During hatching season there are generally several pairs that nest around the pond where I fish. They're so accustomed to humans that they get bold every so often & have to be put in their place. I was fishing one time & found a gosling tangled in a wad of monofiliment fishing line that some slob fisherman had left. Momma was nearby, eyeballing me. I got hold of the line and was able to get close enough to cut the young one loose w/o Momma getting involved. Got lucky.
