Well, I guess mine is battery power. The battery is in the tractor. I brought a 20a 12v connector to the front of the fel. and that powers my Rube Goldberg diesel storage tank. All standard oil tank fittings. Some I was able a scavenge from old tanks. The pump & hose setup were from Amazon...

Cardinal definitely 'King of the Roost'

ty I will

Thanks Moose7060 :) I've always been a believer that even a Monkey, given a camera and enough time will come up with some good images. here is partial exif info: The lens is a Canon RF 100-500mm. Its slow, F4.5-7.1 but its light :) The feeder is on a dead branch that I trimmed and stuck in the...

I continue to shoot the bird feeder area. Today is really to cold / windy to go out n shoot. I wish I knew the kinds of birds I was shooting :)

I am also considering the pto link. Most of my couplers are 'push pin' rather than the ring type. The are easier for me, just not easy. I keep them meticulously clean and lubed. At 78 I have a really hard time with the angles I am working at and the (lack of) strength in my hands. When I put the...

I've been on the hunt for the markers for this property that we bought almost 2 years ago. It only just under 3 acres and the neighbors have been very friendly but. . . As the previous owner, an old friend of mine, found out, that means squat. When his neighbor on the north side died his heirs...

good on you joesmith123 (is that your real name?)! I would like to meet every OTT member and personally shake their hand and wish them a healthy new year.

nice images of the northern lights moose7060! I heard they were going to be visible in the northern US so I was hoping . . . well not to be. We had a hell of a thunderstorm here last night. I was sure one of the flashes and following thunder was some massive explosion somewhere. The thunder...

Happy New Year May your year be healthy and orange

The weather here has been crappy but warm so I'm not complaining. It got up to 60 yesterday. No snow yet so after greasing the tractor a few days ago I've been spending my time with the new camera shooting the bird feeder area. Shot these today. Seems funny now but at the old house I was...

You shouldn't have to 'learn to adapt' to them. With the help of my sons (ok, my sons did it) we set up a vpn (virtual private network) that limits all internet of the world (iot) devices to an internal network that has no internet connection. When you have a Roku device, by definition it needs...

I think I shot this 5-6 years ago at our old house. The foxes had a den they returned to year after year to have their kits. I think there were 5 total in this year. Shot through the window of our house (they were about 150' away, near the den).

It's been ten years since I trailered my old L3400 but here is what I remember. I never used ratchet straps, always used 4 70 grade chains with chain binders. In the rear I went from the drawbar to each rear corner (not crisscrossed) with 2 chains. In the front I used a similar method but...

Sorry to hear of the loss of your friend lugbolt. In my teens and 20's I was like most of my friends and drank too much. Probably one of the reasons they were betting I'd never make it to 30. Then I just stopped. Not completely, but since then it's gone from 3-4 drinks a month to 1 a year...

omg GreensvilleJay, you bring back some terrible memories :) We had an apartment in Boston when I was at Northeastern in the 60's. It was once a very elegant 4 story house in Back Bay that had been converted to 4 apartments and was now less than elegant. We were on the 4th floor and had a large...

My daughter is a Subaru 'Ambassador'. She gets that kind of tsatske (trinkets) to pass out to Subi owners especially at meetups.

Well, I treated myself to a new laptop - coming tomorrow. Since we are going to FL for a couple of months and I have a new camera that I plan on fully exercising, I needed a laptop to download and do some quick limited editing of the images. The laptop I have is my semi former company's. I still...

I used to plow with an F350. Kind of enjoyed getting up at 2 and plow for 2 to 3 hours. The best part was going to the coffee shop at 5:30 or 6 with all the 'real men', having 2-3 cups of coffee and bs'ing. Nah don't miss it at all for 2 reasons. Who wants to get up at 2? The blower on the...

We had a fox den in the woods. about 40m from our old house. I set up video cameras around it with infrared lighting at night. This bobcat came within 10 feet of the den - the cleared circular area in the top center of the video. Bobcat
