I am 6-2 and know the "grass in the eyes and nose" fun, the big bluestem is head high this year. A fella I used to hunt with would wear safety glasses, it was bad for him at 5-10.

We got 6-7" I would say. The mono block of switch grass did it's thing and is laying over with the snow on top of it. On the windward edges, the cover is blown full for 20 yards or so. Sorghum is looking good and is getting pounded. It all made for a great hunt Sunday morning. One of the...

A big premium! Are they thinking residential or commerical development? Maybe just hoping for some kind of development down the road.

How about this one? A bit north of me....copied from Zomer's FB post, huge CSR rating, small parcel SOLD! $32,000.00 per acre! Thank you to everyone who attended the auction today for the farmland located 1 mile Northeast of Orange City, IA in Holland TWP, Sioux County, IA! This farm...

Aronia berries possibly. Elders start so small, I can't imagine there would be much left to them now, but it appears they were still hanging on to the stems they grew on. That seems odd to find those in a crop at this time of the year....July or August seems more likely for berries to be...

Where are '"Pokeberries"? I need to goggle them. Not a term I have heard here. The color looks right for elderberry....are those similar size to sorghum?

A recent PF Journal had a good article on the history of pheasants and pheasant hunting in Iowa over the last 100 years.

Wild grapes or maybe more likely, high bush cranberries. Where were you?

What I have found that works well for a cold weather hat is just my regular cap, and I have a "Icearmor" cap I put over over it, it will cover my ears and I still have the "bill" to block the morning sun. It isn't a knit socking cap, but more of a fleece. I believe it has some type of a...

I always hit Collectors Cove, coming back from the Lakes...not much for sporting goods at any antique stores I visit. I will try to remember to track that place down. It might be a good place to add to my collection. Thanks

Al, that is an awesome bird! It would have made a nice mount! I am not sure I have ever seen a cat while pheasant hunting. Its it really a problem?

OK, you are will be on it. I must be mistaken, but I thought you you said "I bet you could survey 500 pheasant hunters that live in western Kansas, and not a one of them ever heard of the Pheasant Fest in KC.", In my crazy mind, would assume that in 500 Pheasant Hunters (even the ones in...

Those robins should have been leaving a bit earlier, if you are getting the weather we are here. Those conservation easements are a great way to know that land is protected....permanently.

You are a member and YOU didn't know about it???? No talk about it at the local banquet? Come on. If you have opened up a PF journal you could not have missed it. Out of 500 pheasant hunters, not one would have know about it, that means to me, none of those 500 were PF members...you just...

If that creating habitat and seeing the results "doesn't make you any more aware of it or have some special feelings that mean anything to anyone but me", I don't even know how to respond to that. I wasn't 400 miles from many Kansas hunters. Maybe a mini one in Wichita? I think you are asking...

Sounds like they just did the recruiting. If that kind of event doesn't get folks a bit interested, throw some better ideas out.

Awesome !!! Recruit some people, take some friends with you to the banquets and spend some money. Not generalizing (maybe I am a little) but it seems like the bashers of PF here are often Kansas guys. I put a couple on my "ignore" list, so I don't have to read about it. Until they get...

Any idea on the membership by state? That might have something to do with it.

Also my favorite holiday. Much to be thankful for, including websites where my views can cross with others! It is all good.

PF does assist their members with creating habitat, it is what they do. Not every project they are involved with is going to be public access. They want to create habitat on private or public land, doesn't matter which it is. More habitat means more birds. It was mentioned above that PF is a...
