Was down at my range property today to do some trail clearing along the creek for the foot bridge project. Great day for it too being a sunny but chilly day. Was using my Honda weed eater with brush cut blade and my small battery powered chain saw. First picture show remains of an old beaver dam. I had cleared out some of it and the bridge will be in that narrow area.
Started clearing out a trail on other side of creek and found that another smaller creek is located on other side.

Love the creek. Any fish in there? Bluegills, maybe?

I haven't seen any in the shallow areas but it is much deeper up near the road where I have seen some activity. I do know that a couple of
Blue Heron visit the creek and they would know! https://youtu.be/xyZ7SiFtxjI

That sure is some good looking Earth you have there!

Funny about that second creek. My wife has been directing me in some brush clearing (only 1” thorns :( ) I I keep telling her that behind every bush is another bush. She still hasn’t figured it out. :roll:

Ouch...1 inch thorns call for some caution and a nice brush cutter! We have those briar vines that pop up everywhere and I try and chop them out along any trails. Hate those things!
