I used to grow Early Girl, good type.Good morning - a day to get things done around here. No pressing trips to town - though perhaps to the PO to pick up a package. Hoping to get the garden beds done today. Six cattle panels await to become arches over some of the beds. Tomato plants 3 Bush Early Girls and a Lucid Gem (purple on top and orange on the bottom - from DDIL). And various seeds. Got to finish a seed order.
Heading to 80s today
Have a good one.
Have not seen this until now. Thanks for posting this!
I thought about them up until neighbors had a flock of them. They constantly came for a visit and roosted in our trees. They left about the time they were going to end up in the freezer. Holy moly they are loud.
This is interesting. Thank you. Looking into it. Need to be sure we keep our woods trimmed up and pastures eaten down enough.
I don't know, but the impact lifted my heels...lol The wind was blowing so hard, I'm sure that contributed.
They're not heavy at all -- including the ones the size of a VW. BUT they are thorn monsters . Tiny thorns that easily break off and stab the living daylights out of you. I had a dog that worked an area were the damn things had traveled through -- took two weeks of poultice and bandages before she could do much. Nasty things.
No, they're not heavy, but they are nasty. It was the wind and being caught off guard...lol Our burn pit is full of them, they blew in. I need to clean up the fence line again, quite a few piled up there too.
It's not one I would've thought to be a pollinator.
it was 59 in my living room. Brrrr. Crazy!!! I had dressed for warmer, short sleeved shirt. Thankfully I had left a jacket in my truck a couple weeks ago!! That helped with drive home. It was dark, cold & foggy coming home. 
. Slow drive.
Brrrrr. Thought winter had gone
