Severe Drought

[steve morton]

It's officially dry when cows eat goatweeds and the bark off of cedar posts.

I dont have cedars but lots of Hackberry and China Berry, them dang things can all die off.

Radar, deer effin love China Berrys. Cut you a bunch of berries and pile them in front of a cam, you can thank me later

It’s dry here, but not 2011 dry. I lost half my white oaks in 2011, some of them were probably 75 years old.

We have a place in Nixon with some cattle on it been havin to haul water for a month or so now. My mom found a dead rattlesnake a day or two ago she thinks it’s so dry the snake died from dehydration!!! I don’t know about that one but it’s sure gettin ad.

Caught some catfish the other day and they all had ticks.

No rain across the river in 3 months. After a stellar spring it's turned into a powder house, and our brush is starting to wilt.

2011 was way worse.

2011 was worse but only by a few months. Getting really serious in Mills county.

I just bought a place on Hondo creek last month. Property is extremely dry and deer are in very poor condition. The creek is still flowing along my property so I assume it only gets deeper in a normal year?

Congrats on your purchase. Nice you still have water, I’m gonna create a bigger hole starting after season. You ever need help with anything let me know.

Extremely dry here in southern Gonzales county. Can't remember the last time we had a rain to fill any tanks but even during Noah's flood we only had 3/4s of an inch.

If you're saying worse than '11...well, I surely feel for you all. I didn't think it could be worse than '11.

We are only 2.5 " from 2011.. 2.75" less and we would be worse than 2011 by .25"...

And NO real relief in sight.. I'm way past being seriously concerned..

So it’s not as bad? [emoji12][emoji23]

Bucks will be on the feeders late season after the rut.

Deer will need lots of protein this winter and spring just to survive. JMO!
