I’ve noticed this chicken nest perch was out of kilter and needs some repairs before the chickens break it off.
So I got the screw driver out and made some adjustments and tightened it all up so now it looks like this.
Old well work and eating goodies
After that I did some work on getting the sediment out of the old well for a couple hours until my back said to quit so I had a nice break chair hopping around the yard eating cherries and berries.
Weed mowing
Late in the day I got the weed mower out and put some fuel in it to do some work with it.
These weeds in the backyard are getting pretty high and need to be cut so I started with that.
And then I mowed all these weeds down too and it was time for another break to give my back a rest.
Momma hens
I pulled a few weeds to give to the momma chickens that don’t get to go outside as their chicks are still too small yet.
This machine works good for this kind of stuff
And the last thing I did today was to use the weed mower to mow under these apple trees where a lot of poison oak was growing and some blackberry vines too.
There are over a hundred pictures that are served up randomly every time you visit or change pages. They are of earlier pictures of interest and also some just to remind me of things.
A Sony AX33 4K, a video camera that takes stills too. What am I doing with that? I take pictures from my Kayak a lot. I found I was missing interesting shots, because my pic was being processed in my camera, before it would let me take another pic. Since I like to take what I call action stills, I bought this camera to take videos, that I could make stills out of, but, as a bonus, this camera also came with buttons to just take stills and that's what I mostly do, unless something is real interesting or too far away for my still zooms. My digilat zoom setting for video goes to two hundred x, and sometimes I need that, but usually, I only use the 10x lens zoom. Because this camera is HD and 4K, the quality has to be real good and it has a lot of stabilizers on it which really helps out a lot for taking pics on the water.
The other thing it has that is a must is a view finder and I had to buy Sony's top of the line cam to get it. This is a must for taking pics on the water, as you must hold the camera as still as posible and putting that eye piece to the eye forms a tripod with your arms that helps a lot. The eye piece is also a must as it works way better than a LED screen to see what you are taking a picture of in the daylight as the LED screens wash out easily in sunlight.
I also have another video camera, a Canon VIXIA G30. I use them both to mostly take stills. The Sony takes higher resolution stills than the G30. That was a bit of a disappointment as I bought the G30 to replace an older camera I dunked in the river, but then had to buy the Sony to get higher still picture resolution that the G30 was lacking.
You got a lot done today.
