a walnut seedling about 2 weeks old. it can live off the nutrients in the nut for 4-6 weeks. after that the nut is depleted, and the new seedling has to live off it`s own new roots for a water supply . it has to have enough leaves to get energy from the sun. with a little luck the nut has provided enough energy to grow both roots and a top with leaves. if it is in shade, it dies, if it does not get enough water, it dies. all in all quite a miracle, no matter if a new born plant or a new born animal.

rooster update. no one has eaten him yet. he is roosting in the wood shed. crows at 4 a.m. every morning. struts around the front yard all day like he owns the place. has discovered the dog food and water bowls on the front porch. sits on the back of the church pew on the front porch and looks in the window to watch the television. I would say he has it made. now if we could just teach him to trim christmas trees.

wild chicory. this plant is common and has many uses from coffee substitute to salads and other dishes. google chicory plant and read all about it. it dates back to ancient egypt and the time of the romans . picture taken today here on the farm. excellent livestock feed also. it`s beautiful blue flowers are often seen on limestone road side berms, as it likes alkaline soils. native to europe, western asia and north africa. now naturalized to the u.s.

first wild black raspberry pie of the year. lol, I could not wait for it to cool so had to sneak a taste before the picture was taken. ok, I knew what it was going taste like, I just could not wait any longer. my mom said as a kid I was incorrigible. maybe as an adult too. been run out of the kitchen more than once. trim trees and eat pie. life does not get any better.

WE HAVE A CHICKEN! jade at redhead homestead had an extra rooster she did not need so we were the recipients. when the girls were little we had chickens, ducks, and turkeys. this is the first chicken on the farm in about 35 years. when I was young boy I had a pet banty that would sleep with me and lay on my cheek all night purring. brrr,brrr,brrr, chicken talk. it went everywhere with me. when on my bike it would ride on the handle bars. fond memories of my carefree youth. my mother was a saint I think, allowing all my pet foxes, c***s, groundhogs, `possums, and my chicken in the house. some were banned but got snuck in thru my bedroom window at night, lol, which I sometimes snuck out thru......

on the driveway by the pond this morning. the females are out laying their eggs now. egg laying is may and june in this part of indiana. if temperatures are cooler than normal most of the eggs will hatch as females. if warmer than normal most will be males. guessing this year we will have lots of male hatchlings.

walked to the bridge to see how high the creek was after yesterdays big rain. there was a beaver swimming around, not afraid of us at all. I suppose the flooding ran it out of it`s bank den. this time of the year there is not just a single beaver, so we know we have a family somewhere up or down stream. even if beavers can be a big problem we hope the young were old enough to get out of the flooding

here is nathn on the 65 foot boom lift. it can reach out another 45 feet sideways. on big bat exclusion jobs there is just no other way to do it. he now also has the giant vacuum machine to suck out old insulation soiled by animal f***s or water/fire damage, and another blower machine to blow in new insulation. if you need any restoration work done, give him a call.
