    Disappearing Orchids

    My guess is the weather. Wharton is having a hike this Saturday to look for them.

    Pine Pollen

    A lot is coming from the Oak catkins, worse than the pollen IMO, clogs everything up, including the dogs hair :eek:

    Ticks & Chiggers--a study

    They definitely rub their antlers to remove the velvet, but that's a once a year thing. Their heads probably come in contact as well as the rest of their body.

    Spring theme

    I guess nothing is certain in this world. If it really wants you, it will get you. But if I were concerned about what walks around in the woods, and I'm not, I would carry it. As I said, IMO it's better than just screaming, the odd's are it will deter the animal, but you have to use it...

    Spring theme

    I doubt it, NJ is a liberal state. I have a couple canister's from our early Yellowstone/Grand Teton trips packed away somewhere. I'm sure to find them when the valves start leaking. :siren: Since then we donate the canister's to the backcountry office when we were leaving. You do not need...

    Lawn mowers

    The one I bought has the 7.5 amp battery and the quick charger. The battery is heavy, 6-7 lbs, I can't see it being useable on a handheld tool for any length of time. They also have 2.0, 2.5, 4.0 and 5.0 amp batteries. I updated my post to the mfg stated run and charge time, and it appears...

    Lawn mowers

    The charge is said to last about 60 minute or so, that's what the info says and its born out on the reviews. A recharge takes about half the time, at least the first one did. I don't have much grass, maybe 4-5k sq ft, but there is a lot of 'natural' stuff I try to keep at bay. I do not bag...

    Lawn mowers

    I went to start my trusty Snapper and it let me down. It's been happening a lot lately. This time, after taking good care of it for the winter, I filled the tank, primed it, and it started right up. Then the smell of gasoline pouring out of it. It always happens with a full tank. Clamped the...

    Osprey nest on GSP sign post?

    I took the liberty to contact Ben Wurst about the nest. He is the Osprey Project coordinator. If they deem it a hazard to drivers they may likely move the nest as it will get messy once the pair start feeding any chicks. http://www.conservewildlifenj.org/protecting/projects/osprey/ There...

    Ticks & Chiggers--a study

    What I find amazing is how they can expand to the size they do without bursting when they are engorged. Their skin, or whatever you call it, must be extremely pliable .
