nathan been eating them like mad. he came back with a few in the bottom of a quart box and his fingers and mouth were all purple. I told him he`d be pooping purple like a possum. he said he saw one of those purple poops under the tree. not his, I think.....

we were talking about that . I don`t know of any other feed ready now. I see the coons been digging out kernels of seed corn in the rows. no frogs fish or clams, they all died last year. and really no corn or beans left in the fields much. the newer combines have made picking a higher % and with grain prices up farmers are keeping things calibrated. insects and worms I bet are even down. we went and looked at that turd and it is all full of those little white seeds the mulberrys have. we are set up for a monster blackberry, elderberry and raspberry crop here if we can just get the rain. we are bad dry here already. we got .8 total that last round when a lot of the state got 2-4". and nothing yesterday, all went south. not a drought here yet, but will be if we miss the next one.

Ever thing here is doing good and looks like the wild stuff will be a bumper crop.Most people don't think as to why we had no young coon just must of die from disease.When there is no food source the young are the first to go.
No worms and night crawlers is a big spring food for them.

folks wonder why possums and coons get run over so bad on rainy nights. it`s because they are on the pavement eating worms. get a chipmunk size baby possum and put a worm in front of him. he turns into a lion instantly, knows just what to do.

No mulberrys here yet. I'm afraid the heavy rains and bad weather may have ruined the blooms or something. Trees are bare with none on them.

Picked and ate some mulberries today, and brought a handful home for M. They were real sweet, just like her!
