Our recently planted corn didn't turn out too good with all the rain. As a hobby farmer perfect planting conditions make you look good; otherwise things look a lot different. With all the rain we're getting it may be a while before we can get back in and replant the upper half of this field...

Had to modify the line used to hang the feeder; using two separate lines spread apart to keep the feeder from spinning. Trimmed some limbs to let some light in and then the clouds rolled in. It's cool to see different birds at this spot. Not sure what the brown bird is called.
