Where do you get your weed? Milkweed that is.

Things you find in the woods. . . .

Turkey hunting this morning I happened upon a long narrow pile of hundreds (if not thousands) of discarded milkweed pods. The pile was about 18" wide X 20ft long and pretty close to 6" deep in spots. Based on the appearance it appears that there have been multiple years of deposit, some is significantly more decomposed than the uppermost most layer. This was in a small field back in a chunk of public hardwoods that would have been difficult to get a motor vehicle into. Looks like someone carried them in by the five gallon bucket and dumped them in a line. I always wonder at the possible explanation behind some of these strange (to me anyway) things I stumble across in the woods.

That is really odd.

Wow... Almost worth setting a trail camera on it just to see

My first thought was that they swept off the brush hog before they folded it up.
