UT OH! I think we might be wrong about it being a bad one Twink!
This page seems to be the same thing, but you look and tell us for sure.

Well, not really, b/c if it's a host, then I would suppose the host life is lost sustaining the little buggers as they grow are hatch or whatever?

I heard or read that the 'winter' home can be huge( like from 8' deep and 10-20 feet long :eek: ? Think shallow 1 car garage here :o ), and even threaten the integrity of a home foundation. Fortunately, the older one (not in the pic) had taken up in the last few years under the old shed out back, an...

There is sooooooo much construction going on around us, that all the critters are looking for new digs and since I keep a pretty nice 'natural' area, they seem think that it's only NATURAL for them to be a part of it! The last 2 days, I've come out back to find the pappa sitting in the platform feed...

Well, the vines aren't growing any more, the pumpkins are. I think the one plant is dying, as it's just not looking good, the sun has scalded the base of it, b/c it's been so danged hot!

Oh yes, she's loved fruit and veggies since she was tiny. Peas are #1, followed by watermelon, pumpkin, tomatoes, potatoes, uh...pumpkin..let's see...basically any veggie or fruit. The only thing she can't have but absolutely is uncontrollable over is cotton candy! I swear, she's patient with everyt...

Thanks, I'll give it a squeeze tomorrow morning, first thing!

Oh gosh! Someone will know, but not me! I'm thinking I remember the rice being either eggs of it's own or another creature that uses it as a host for it's own eggs? Not sure though....probably way off base!

:wink: Nope! Rarely listen to anyone but that little voice in my head! :lol: But back at you sweetie! This last year with you and this group at Hallsons, would have been my downfall for certain! That's another reason you all needed to come together.....right now......over me! :lol: :lol: :lol: :D

Ah, yes. I've got too many planted again this year! Still have canned one from year before! :lol: But.... only 4 of these, 4 cherry size, 6 early girl and 12 beef steak. Or it might be 12 early girl and 6 beef, not sure yet! And of course the tags are way under the plant! :roll: I'm afraid with this...

OH NO! I'll call her today! Oh my, oh my! Thanks Chris!

Have to admit, though I had a belly laugh with that organic pest control method you suggested! I can see her having her dh do that one! Thanks everyone for you inviting nature to a great gal!

This is an heirloom ( I think it's brandywine, but not sure). I've never grown them and it started out a pinkish color and now is redish but has the green stripes in the grooves. When are they ready for picking? Anyone?

Well, she/he is continuing to grow! I'm hoping dd enjoys carving them up! As for the seeds/meat, I'll have to ask my resident kitty! She's the one that crawls into them to eat the insides out! :D I've lost her kitten pics when she as actually IN the pumpkins, but here's one from about 5 years ago, e...

Okay, I'll be nice....
Yes, she's a sweetie, I met online 10 years ago! We've never met in person, but have been freinds since and never far from one another in heart and soul! She knows me (too well sometimes) and like you, tends to 'mother' me when it comes to health and safety!

Put up a feeder sock and they'll come to your house Anne! And the more feeders the more finch! We had last year at one time, up to 42 on 4 feeders! What a fiasco that was. Many were fledgings, and hysterical to watch learn to fly in and eat! Even more fun if you get the finch feeders where they have...

Ut oh~The gauntlet has been thrown! Everyone! RUN!

Nice pics! So much fun to capture them on camera, isn't it? So much better than nets as kids!

GREAT pics! Those frogs are so darned cute! Wishihad a pond

Muffy, nice shots! You're lucky you got such clear pictures! I can't seem to not shake with this heat we are having! All my pics are fuzzzy!

Great pics! I've never realized how big their ears were!
