It's a spooky time for a removal.

thank you.

I don't have the flair for the video thing you do I'm afraid.  I am breaking in a new rookie (my wife)  to assist me though and she is starting to get the hang of the pictures.

Very nice save. It sounds like some long comb sections. Good job and thanks for sharing it with us!

thank you.  To be honest,  I would have preferred not to do the removal at this late time of the year though in terms of conservation/survival.

The best I can do is get them in the combine and feed to give them the best chance.
