June 7: The pheasants are
nesting and will be hatching any day now. I was out there this past
Sunday and Monday planting some food plots and checking the crops. There
are many duck nests around and I was seeing many rooster pheasants which
indicates the hens are sitting tightly on their nests. The ponds are full
of water and waterfowl. We are beginning to see some ducklings. Several
Canada geese pairs are on the property.

July – The water remains high
in most places. Ducks are everywhere. Food plots and crops looking good.
Here is the big hillside food plot to the north of the Katy house. Grasses
are growing taller this summer also.
It’s so amazing to see the how well the little pheasants fly. We
are startled by the exploding coveys of feather balls each about the size
of a child’s fist.

One of our new food plots south of the Hudson House
parallels a long draw down to the river. Notice the rich color in the
spring wheat. If you look real close you can see the white wind farm
towers on the ridge in the distance.

appreciate these improvements also. reallydlo\ng grass
fields and the CRP areasparticipated in the the big hillside food plot tWe
have pulled a number of interior fences in the grass fields and the CRP
areas. This will eliminate a lot of fence straddling we had been doing.
The dogs will really appreciate these improvements also.
