Saw Mourning Doves today. Lots of Juncos,  more Cardinals than in the winter months too. Mike, you need one of those one pump pellet guns. They’re great fun!

The goldeneyes are still around but woodies have been back for several days and today I saw blue wing teal.  I figure with that, it’s wide open on what ducks are back in central MN now.

 

Woodie boxes have been ready for about a month.  I plugged the hole in the garage wall the phoebes have been using for a nest the past few years.  Cool little birds but they don’t need to nest there.

I'd love to get another pellet gun. But with the jerk I have for a neighbor I best not. ?

 

If they will call the cops on my other neighbor veered into his lawn mowing grass they'd definitely call them if I plinked a few birds with a pellet gun.?

Juncos all left a few days ago, I really like watching the little tykes. They sure hang in big groups. Must be getting close to oriole and hummingbird season.

Haven't seen juncos in a while either. Seeing a few yellow finches though. My tree swallows, barn swallows, whatever there called showed up yesterday.

 

Put the oriole and hummingbird feeders out yesterday.

I don’t know what birds start singing first but around 4am they seem to wake up.  Not sure why cuz I can’t even see a hint of sunrise at that time but I can about set a clock by it.

 

About 3:55 am the one type starts.  At 4 the cardinals start and about 4:10 the robins chirp in.  I was thinking the robins were first but I’ve been corrected.  They might be phoebes?

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
