    Haven't ran Blue Samson in 2 weeks, it's spring in Dixie, so no telling what you'll find. Went to the woodyard yesterday evening, uncovered Blue Samson and found this on the back side of the pusher plate... 20260314_192928.jpg
    Probably a house wren, luckily no eggs present yet, so got evicted.

    Those wrens sure like to buld their nests back in little hidey-holes. Glad you found it before it was permanently occupied.

    It's been a good week in Dixie.
    Monday a guy gave us some trees he had taken down with an excavator. 20260330_122648.jpg 20260330_123709.jpg
    Some we had to limb and cut off the stumps 20260330_123036.jpg
    We took the sweet gum and limbs and piled that in the woods .
    We got a nice load of oak... 20260330_145706.jpg
    Tuesday we went back to our friends place and cut pines. Pines, pines galore thread.
    Wednesday we helped an old friend take down part of a pecan tree... Messenger_creation_A0D84005-746C-4E19-A843-CE12E4E300CA.jpeg
    We took off 3 main stems... 20260401_133449.jpg
    Another friend helped and got a trailer load of farwood 20260401_133603.jpg
    We left a nice pile of logs to process this fall... 20260401_133426.jpg
    He will get a local tree service to come take the rest down. The main trunk was huge, and looked to have some rot. Didn't want to chance something going wrong and hitting his house.
