RebelSS Posted May 12, 2016 Author Share Posted May 12, 2016 She couldn't grow a decent tomato if her life depended on it. Her tomato plants over there look like a nuclear test bed on Kwajalein island. Whaddya grow in that "garden", Smurf? Special weeds? "Free watering"...I'll bet! Yellow?

Thanks roony. Wrens do have the annoying habit of filling some of the bluebird nesting boxes with thousands of little sticks without using them and while I haven't seen it here, they're capable of poking holes in the bluebird eggs so they don't hatch. Still, I enjoy their song and as smurfy said they are good little bug eaters. As for sparrows and starlings, deporting them back to Europe would be a good start.

roony Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 I found this rant about wrens somewhat amusing. https://sora.unm.edu/sites/default/files/journals/wilson/v037n01/p0005-p0013.pdf 3 minutes ago, Dotch said: As for sparrows and starlings, deporting them back to Europe would be a good start.

gunner55 Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 It's 41 here & a NW wind about 10. Might make 45 & blow 10-20 all day about the same predicted for tomorrow. Bemidji is saying mid 20's overnight tonight & low to mid 30's for Saturday night. It looks like a good day for a project indoors.

bobberineyes Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Morning fellers, we have lots of rens and swallows at the lake, I'm tired of the swallows camping out under the boat canopy. 41 and rain here can't wait for the winds to pick up. Was messing around on the dock yesterday and the warden stopped by, mainly small talk but we'll probably see him on the water tomorrow. Well gotta round up some more coffe.....see ya.

smurfy Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Morning rained pretty good all the way to St Paul. Wish we could reserve some of this for July. Pretty intense training yesterday. Done at 1 today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delcecchi Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 I guess mowing yesterday was the right decision. Gotta pack to go visit granddaughters and open cabin. Hope it warms up, up north, before we get there. Glad I'm skipping opening weekend. Getting a little old for that fishing in the sleet stuff.

roony Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 My shop roof was white as snow this morning in southern MN. Official low temp at the Waseca Airport was 36. I think I will cover a few things tonight and put my over 100 dixie cups of tomatoes and peppers inside! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
