We are losing all the ash trees around our place. We now have more woodpeckers around than just about any other bird. Up in NE Missouri where we are we had a pretty bad drought that ended last year. Still see a lot of dead dying oaks in the woods. Pretty sad, because it looks like it didn't have any effect in the maples. Pretty to look at, but useless for wildlife.
9 yr old pond, 1 ac, 15' deep. RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (going away), SMB, and HSB (only one seen in 5 yrs) Restocked HSB (2020) Have seen one of these. I think that's about all I should put in my little pond. Otter attack in 2023
