[QUOTE="dun, post: 503181, member: 34"] It takes time. The other farm took about 3 years before we saw any improvement, this one is going on 5 and we're just started seeing actual brood coveys last year. The old farm had just been neglected and had grown up into too much scrub. This farm was badly abused for about 20 years before we got it. Something that has helped here is that some of the dairys have gone out of business and city folks are buying the land and just letting the pastures grow up in weeds. That will be a help for a few years, but before long the trees will start encroaching on the fields and it will be downhill again. Disposing of a half dozen feral cats has probably helped around hre too, only 3-4 more that I see regularly left to go. Farm may not be pretty and well manicured, but the birds sure seem to like it.
