Pheasant Prepping

Farm equipment has been rolling hard

for the past few weeks...

we keep hoping for rain,

but as you can see

the rains keep missing us

and we deal with the dust!

With the crops coming out of the fields

so is the wildlife...

tractors roll through

rousting up habitat,

leaving deer, birds, etc.

looking for new hang outs.

it's time to start wrapping our trees, 

the bucks will be in the yard at night

using them for scraping tools.

Pheasant season opens this weekend.

Out-of-state hunters

will be flocking in,

filling up hotels and hunting lodges!

and our lonely country road

will be a temporary

freeway for pickup trucks and suburbans...

the "no hunting" signs

will be up at the end of our property,

only trying to save a little 

bird population to last the whole season...

and besides our property

is our own little haven

for me to photograph

early morning pheasant guests

while they cackle and fly around the silo!

If you're a good shooter,

you should have no problem bagging

your limit...

we are seeing pheasants all over 

the roads and fields on our travels

to and from town.

I hope your fall season is 

full of fun

and you are able to

get out and 

enjoy nature!!

Thanks for stopping by today.

Hugs,

Lisa
