    If you plan on keeping the top of that drain trench open then you are probably going to put some kind of series of steps on both sides so the ducklings can get out. Trust me, they will somehow always, ALWAYS end up in areas that they can't get out of and it only takes a little bit of time for the mother duck to abandon her little ones.

      I don't know about that. The kids and parents would always ask to keep coming and start getting annoyed when the owner says no. Then people might sneaking in and tension between owner and fishers would get worse and worse. It happens alot in trout rivers in Australia that go through farmland.

    THE DEAD? OAK: If you want to have equal size on all the trees, you should replace the tree as soon as possible. It's probably dead. You check it by wrapping your hand around the trunk, it should feel cold. If you are unsure, compare with the green one next to it. Since all the other trees are alive, you haven't done anything wrong. Talk to the supplier and report it.

    • @codygooch510
      @codygooch510 Před rokem

      So if it doesn’t feel cold it’s dead/dying? Is this a pretty accurate way of finding out if an oak is dying? I hope it works like you say it does. That’ll be revolutionary for me 😂😂

    • @hepaticanobilis9700
      @hepaticanobilis9700 Před rokem +6

      This is a simple and accepted way to find out if a plant is dead. It is about the amount of water in the plant. It is difficult to judge if the plant has died recently, but this is a tree where the sap has not risen in the spring. If you still feel unsure, you can test yourself with leaves. A green one sitting on a tree and a brown (dry) one from last year. :)@@codygooch510

    I had a juvenile eagle fly around my neighborhood once, and you could hear the crows for miles. they traded off attacking and scaring away eagle. It was a crazy aerial display! They chased him higher and higher and for a pretty great distance. It’s neat to observe such crazy intelligence of the crows. It almost seems human like because they really behave as if they are protecting more than just themselves, and they have a concept of value for their environment.

    • @rdizzy1
      @rdizzy1 Před rokem

      Crows do some crazy shit, I once saw them act just like a group of pick pockets does, to steal food from another animal. One or 2 crows will annoy and distract the animal, while a third one swoops in from the other direction and steals their food. Then the other 2 fly away and they meet back up to share it. They are highly social.

    @frankkang8304 Před rokem +5

    Hey man, great idea to implement that drain.
    One tip, if I may add, is to add like a check dam or a riprap. It's used to control and "filter" polluted soil from entering the water.
    If interested, look up stormwater pollution prevention. Majority of pollutions in water comes from polluted soil, and one way to control that is to implement these "filter" systems on stormwater piping.

  • @skyhawksailor8736
    @skyhawksailor8736 Před rokem +34

    Just a small suggestion for the trench. You might want to think of putting a four to six inch dam in the trench a couple of feet from the pipe. Something as simple as a piece of angle steel, six inches on each leg, cut to the width of the trench. By putting this into the trench it will stop any mud or garbage from flowing into the pond. At work we had a trench in the middle of the wash rack for employees to clean their trucks and equipment. When I had to take the snowcat to Virginia Peak for my monthly microwave radio and generator run, depending how far down the mountain I had to unload, my truck, trailer and snowcat would be covered with mud. The next day I had to spend all day cleaning the mud off them with the pressure washer, then clean all the mud from the washing pad. The last thing I had to do is clean the eight inches of mud which had accumulated in the bottom of the mud trench. The mud trench had a steel plate slid into a slot a few inches before the drain. Most of the time the mud was up to the bottom of the grates, and after some really muddy trips the mud with be hiding the grates. I just removed the grates and would put sever shovel fulls into a bucket to put into the dumpster. I would not be surprised if some days I had removed near 1,000 pounds of mud from the trench.

    So I am not a tree guy but, here in the Central Valley of California (think Modesto) the is a fairly common Oak and the leaves stay full and green till December. Them they all turn a deep brown but do not fall off, Then around Easter they fall off in clumps and then go through the bud and new leaf cycle late spring. During summer and early fall they look the same as any other oak. So maybe you got one of these weird oaks in your batch. Love what your doing and really love your pond life segments.

    As for the cormorant, I use a bb gun for my pond. I shoot at it while it's swimming and it freaks out. After a dozen or so shots, (whenever you can tell he just wants to get away), I go inside. About 5 minutes later or even sometimes while I'm still outside, they will get to the shoreline and start drying off. I haven't had one in my pond in a few months. Hope that helps

    Just an IDEA...You should also keep track of what lure and color you use for each bass caught along with time of day etc. It would be interesting to know if you catch the same fish with multiple lures/colors or if you catch the same fish over and over with the same lure. Over time you might be able to narrow it down to a specific color lure that a specific fish likes I.E. if you know that Bonnie likes a green worm then you could actually go out a target her one day to see her growth.
