Dave Pack: Birds are designed to poop poison ivy seeds by poles and trees



It is heartening to know that brother Dave Pack is an authority on everything in the world.  Not only is he a master lumberjack, but he is a great ornithologist! Who knew!  He is such an all around man!

All of you probably have tried to pull vines out of places where they don’t belong. I have. We’ll be doing some more tomorrow. We have a lot of “old growth” forest, here, on the campus, and we have some of the biggest, toughest, tallest vines, wrapped up into giant trees, you could ever imagine. I’ve literally tried to pull some down. I usually work with a team of about five on Sunday mornings when we’re cutting trees, and some of these vines—four guys can swing on. Tarzan’s got nothing on them. [laughter] It’s amazing, and…Now, if you wait a year or two, they’ll rot, and they’ll fall out…but once a vine is entrenched in a tree, it’s incredibly difficult to get it out.
The kudzu vine will take over trees, and kill it and suffocate it. Anybody who’s ever tried to pull poison ivy vines out know how uniquely difficult they are to get out. They always grow up along poles and trees because birds eat poison ivy and then they eliminate the seeds right…Guess where…right at the edge of the poles or the trees, and then they grow up the trees, which is the way God designed it.
I wonder if birds will be allowed din the First Dominion?  How can the First Dominion have bird poop soiling it up?

That partially explains things. Dave might have accidentally ingested some of those poison seeds! Maybe they act the same as ergot poisoning.

According to a page on poison ivy, he's on the right track about the bird poop. And as if Dave continues to deforest Wadsworth...

Dave and his crew of 5 was always funny walking around campus. Dave pointing and them doing the work, cutting, pruning, etc... Better do it right though, he almost fired someone one time because they mis-pruned a branch. True story!

A wonderful example of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, meekness, etc... You know, all the fruits of the spirit an Apostle should have.
