Not So Pro 3

So do those trees have the typical maple “winged” seeds?

This is the seed I mentioned the other day that was on the trees in central Texas that were called sycamores and it’s what I found on web by googling “sycamore seed”

the sycamore's here have those winged seeds, they spin like a helicopter when they fall and therefore can spread a fair distance in the wind.
The Norway maple has same shape seeds but there’s less of them on the tree.

@Wonkydonkey
Do you have many horse chestnut or Conker trees near your area?

The chestnuts themselves almost look like a varnished walnut furniture finish

Yes we have a few, they can grow quickly at first, out competing other trees and get big if the conditions are right.

The horse chestnut here have a soft spiky shell but the seeds look the same.
I’ve noticed in the past there’s two different coloured blossoms on different trees (white or pinkish red). it has a different Latin name as to distinguish the different coloured blossom ?
Aesculus hippocastanum (White blossom)

Aesculus x carnea. (Pinky red blossom)​

This link says the European is the white version and the pinky red is North American related

good morning

Time for me Togo squeeze some apples

And also checkout the Homelite 3314 that I ended up putting a carb kit in yesterday, as it wouldn’t run after I changed the fuel strainer ,it must have had a pinhole in the metering diaphragm as well

Same here on two different blossoms and they are a sight to see early summer. I got a bunch of the nuts

 

[USMC615]

Mornin’ nuts and scrotums and the likes…62 to 78, everything still wet from the last two days of non-stop light rain but it’ll dry out at some point today. What in the hell I’m doing up at 5:20 on a day off I have no clue.

Good morning men. Gloomy feel in the air, I like it. Two more days of on call, long week this week. Looking forward to firewood cutting this year. I need the exercise. Stay safe all, hope all is well with those needing prayers, will keep it up until asked to stop.

Good morning fellas. 45 to 54 and overcast here today. Planning to attend the annual 4 wheeler and sideXside ride today. Lots of fun and a lot of laughs. Enjoy your Saturday doods.

Good morning girls and bisexual bums

Picked up meds at the pharmacy, picked up 5 used mods, guess I have to buy a bottle of electronics cleaner.
Most likely I will get the project saw on Monday, which I hope will be a restoration project with necessary new parts, and then it will be put in the collection that means something to me. If its not then I’ll use it as summer saw.

Have any of you used Stihl's chainsaw cleaner?

Morning folks, it's a sunny start to our day, 44 going to 54. Figure to do some upgrades to the garage lighting, adding a couple of LED shop lights to what will be a new switched outlet circuit.
