Filling deep woods watering hole during a drought! Budget! Deer land management at the farmstead!
Lost video, but lets get out to some HOT and DRY weather since we are now stuck in a nasty, and rainy weather pattern here for early 2020! Join me for a fun, and HOT video of the drought we endured here during late summer of 2019, as I improvised a way to fill up my deep woods watering hole, aka the 'skyline watering hole,' which is the ONLY watering hole that I have that I have to manually fill up once a year. This was a deer watering hole that I dug a couple of years ago with the Bobcat e42 mini excavator, but since there were just so many rocks in this area I had to add a pond liner to get it to hold water. After going through some old videos I realized that I had never created a project video of this land management and habitat improvemet activity. So, better late than never, but please join me for some sunshine, some frustrations, and keeping it real as I work to fill up this deer watering hole during the drought of 2019, that we experienced here at our Southern Illinois homestead farm. While we might be considered 'Modern Homesteaders,' at this point we are still working on creating and improving wildlife conservation projects, and wildlife improvement projects on our 150 acre Illinois farm. During this small pond filling project I used my Ford F150 truck and my Polaris Ranger XP 1000 Northstar to haul out fresh water to fill the deer watering hole prior to the 2019 deer hunting season. Of course, as most projects go there were many failures along the way and letdowns. But in the end, I was able to get this deep woods man made watering hole full for the deer and wildlife to use during the last fall and the 2019 deer hunting season.
