Daughter was checking fence today and was
remarking about the number of Monarch
butterflies along a carrigana tree row.

Had a dragon fly flying around my cab today. I was so lonely I held him for 2 hours. He got back out cause I left the door open.

[Hopperbin]

Horse seriously I have never had a dragon fly in my cab before. Pretty sure it is not common. Is that some sort of chemical thingy?

[Hopperbin]

Its pretty early for dragon flies. Must be something to do with chemical , most of all monsanto

what happened to the moles this year.
not that it hurts my feelings , esp. in peas.
did that cold snap in feb. with no snow freeze kill them.
sprayed about 1/2 canola with matador.
seemed one area had em and another didn't.
wire worms in every scoop every where.
on the bright side the better land is solid earth worms, 2-3-4 per 2 inch wide
scoop

wd-9 was saying the seed treatments did not work well on striped flea beetles .
that was virtually all i was seeing.

on the moles in the sandy land.
it's amazing , there's like 1-2 % of the last 5 years. badgers will starve

They all moved north of the river sawfly, actualy lots in areas around here.

Someone mentioned that Matador is much safer to work with than Decis. Not sure why? Toxicity to mammals is quite a bit higher with Matador.

Parsley, I havent seen a lady slipper since I was
8 years old. i tell my grandchildren about the one
I saw blooming in the crook of a willow tree north
of Mikado. You are so lucky to be out in nature's
wonderland.

City life is not nearly as interesting.

Just checked the MSDS for Matador and Decis 5EC. Decis IS MORE TOXIC than Matador. Soooo, the Sask Guide to Crop Protection has incorrect info, nice....
