Day 65 Horses

It is miserably cold out today and snowy, so I thought i would take my mind off the weather and use a shot I got a few days ago of Angel and Cowboy. I started my closeup photography class today and it’s awesome..

Day 64 Baby shots

I was out looking for a missing calf yesterday and shot these little guys on my way walking down the creek. Never did find the calf and we are suspecting that a lion might have got it.  I am off and running today with the coming weather change requiring moving the heavy cows...

Day 63 Is that father and son?

Shot this one in that nice late afternoon light of the pair of Caterpillars that we have down at the barn( D8 and D4). They look like they could be a father and son waiting to go to work. We use all wheel tractors now, so they sit idle except for when we clean the corrals. Winter storm on it’s way again for tomorrow, YUCK!!

Day 62 Getting ready for spring

The weather the last two days has felt alot like spring with the temps in the 60s. Took this last night down at the barn just as the sun was going down.  This abandoned house is now a calf shelter from stormy weather. I just heard on the weather that we are going back to winter by weekend.

Day 61 Litterbug

On my way home the other day, I noticed what some litterbug had thrown in the ditch. I am sure this “slushy” cup has a story I’ll never know.

Day 60 On the way home

Just got back from doing chores and checking the cows. Lost one calf today;drowned in the creek and it was one of my best registered cows too. I have never understood what would possess a cow to back up to a creek bank and dump her calf in. That is how it goes when the weather gets nice. We did have 5 live, healthy ones during the 60 plus temp day. Perfect calving weather; couldn’t ask for better. So we will be moving them to another pasture with no creek to fall in tomorrow. It seems to happen every year and that is when we get the signal it is time to move.

Jenn and I took a road trip to Missoula yesterday to visit the camera store there. I got an adaptor for my polarizing filter, UV filter for my new lens and a new MRock camera bag for the camera. I have one for my 40D and this one is just the same only longer to accommodate a bigger lens.  We also visited the scrapbook store. Picked up some paper for recipes and also some kits for my mom’s recipe collection. We also found some of the things we need for Kolette Hall’s class. On the way over we stopped at Highcountry to get some jerky for the guys and some fudge for breakfaast.  On the way home we stopped just outside of Lincoln to grab some shots. A couple nice areas that I need to visit again when spring comes.
