my scout came back again today in new concord,oh
im really frustrated that he came back but while i was putting up all 67 gourds he was singing to me and all i thought about was God's wonderful creatures. When i got the gourds he left because it was sunny and he was looking for crickets. I no sooner got done and snow came. In fact its still snowin...

a scout to early in New Concord,oh
I was so shocked this morning when i heard a scout singing the the sky then saw him land on the top of my Gemini Gourd rack. He sat there for an hour while i got one t-14 ready. I suspect he wanted the gourds though. I hate for them to come this early. I will just have to feed and protect him from t...

Re: Scrambled eggs
You have to remember that even though the pms have all the dragon flies they could want they lose much weight and get worn out by constantly flying and feeding the babies. If your a true landlord you will suppliment the feeding with crickets meal worms and scrambled eggs, plus egg shells and oyster ...

Re: nestcheck/hawk
dont stop nest checks you have to be aware of whats happening in the nests all the time. As far as the hawks my wife and i are in our 70's and constantly watch out for hawks a couple times a day to shout at them and scare them. We shout blank shells at them just to scare them off. Its a pity they ar...

Scrambled eggs
I'm a strong believer of scrambled eggs. We have gone thru 25 dozen already and will do 40 more dozen. The only problem i see is the babies grow much faster. Ive had 4 nests fledge already. Its sad but makes me somewhat proud. During these cold days my martins had meal worms crickets oyster shells a...
