Maddy graduated from college this weekend and we threw a big bash at the farm. Happy and proud of Maddy, but it sure does make me feel old.

Pool is open!
Still a little cold, but what the heck.
Turkey Hunt
We heard a lot of turkeys, saw none, but we sure had fun!
First one in the beaver pond

Finally installed the first duck box in the beaver pond. Pretty sure I found the beaver hut(s) too. As cold as it still is, there were tadpoles and small frogs swimming around.

What kind of plants are these?
Frogs are already hatching
Dam repairs
First step, temporarily lower water level by installing 12″ pipe through dam. Hopefully will be able to remove sediment from the other end. Later on we’ll put the pipe lower and install an elbow, vertical riser and a ‘trash guard’.
First nesting box up
I put up the first of eight wood duck nesting boxes yesterday. Hopefully we’ll get some nesting hens this spring.
Burning
Burned a ton of brush and old logs, been hesitating to do this for a while, waiting for the weather to cooperate.
Well this is a problem
Trap works!

No coyote in the trap yet, but this guy was in there. Took a while to get him out of the trap, but he finally scurried back into the woods. Possums are ugly! Now figuring where to move the trap to since this guy will probably go back for another dinner if I reset it there.
