Yes,, lousy invasive Juniper weed. About 15 years ago they introduced them into this area for shelter or 'food plots'. They grow a million blue berries which birds eat, get diarrhea, and then dump them anywhere within 5 miles. I expect they aren't healthy for pheasants who need to conserve their energy during cold weather.
They prefer to grow in grass under fences and power lines, and move into wood lots. They can be sawn down, but the seeds are viable for 5 years. They keep coming back. They only had value in the past for making wooden pencils from the short straight pieces between knots. The US Forest service is trying to eradicate them, to reduce wild fires. However, the MN DOT lets them grow in road ditches. And from there, they spread into adjoining pasture and wood lots (including mine). I don't see many people being responsible about them. Some even plant them on purpose. No consideration for our natural heritage.
For the last 10,000 years, the Buffalo made sure they didn't grow in the grasslands. They also have vicious pollen for those with allergies.

I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
