If local indications are any sign there should be a ton of birds this year. I am seeing probably 10 times more local birds than I have in years.

I broadcast sunflower seeds and then cover them with a harrow and chains. I have never seen birds landing while I was planting until this year. One of the plots that I had seeded is about 1/2 mile from the rest. I seeded it first, then the others. I'd say maybe 1.5 hrs between when I seeded it and when I went back with the harrow to work things in. Must have been 50 doves on that bare dirt eating my seed.

Good luck to all of you guys!


Have a good day man. In honor of personal freedom and the open squirrel season, I think I'll go put a hole through dinner's head.
