Well the season is finally over and I didn't kill another deer. To be completely honest I didn't really try too hard, some how I'm not as mad at 'em as I used to be. Gettin' older makes it harder to work at it like I once did. But be assured you can't beat a good dinner of fried venison ham with peas and rice or maybe a special supper with some broiled tender loins wrapped in bacon. And let's not forget about the sausages, it'll be time to make them pretty soon.
The Durana Clover is looking real good! A few afternoons I observed deer picking at it before the general gun season was over. It appears to have a few weeds in it and maybe even a little bit of Rye Grass.
Since the M/L season ended Sunday evening this one decided to give up his nocturnal schedule:
Maybe this one will make it till next season, he's a good one for around here. I notice he has a forked brow tine.

Found my game camera batteries had died and only had a few uninteresting pictures around the feeder but took a picture of the Durana clover planted back in October and the Oat patch, some of the oat plants are going to seed, (making oat seed) and there is a lot of left over/volunteer white clover in the areas of the food plot that was not planted last fall.
Getting ready for planting our garden and probably something for Bambi, I had to replace 5 disk blades on my old harrow. Hadn't finished but do have new blades on the axles. Now comes the fun part, hanging the axles back under the frame. It used to be just a regular job but now it's a big job as I'm gettin' older.
We are looking for freezing temperatures tonight, lots of folks reported frost this morning in the Panhandle.
