Little Turtle
Slow and steady wins the race.
Have a wonderful and slow Saturday.
Afternoon Snack
Looking ready for spring and the fresh new grass it will deliver a Bighorn Sheep makes due with an afternoon snack from last years growth now exposed as the snow begins to melt.
Along the Madison
Sounds of silence along the Madison river on a day where the sun tired as hard as it could peek through.
The early bird
May not get the worm with all the snow covering the ground but it is sure nice to see the Horned Larks out and about on the backroads.
Out of the blue
What a pleasant surprise to find that the male Mountain Bluebirds have started to arrive even with a significant amount of snow covering the ground in most places. This “first of the year” bluebird does indeed signal that spring has sprung and their arrival was indeed out of the blue.
Just look at all that blue it is amazing.
Goodbye Goldeneyes
Seems like it is time again to bid the Goldeneyes farewell for the season. We all can sense spring is in the air and they have all abruptly left the local pond this week for their annual migration to the north. We may yet get a snow storm or two but the goldeneye migration is a natural calendar I can count on to tell me middle March is here.
Dressed in White
Although each sporting a distinct style both look good in white.
Holding On.
When the wind blows hard it’s all about holding on.
March tends to be a windy month and this day was no exception. A female Red Winged Blackbird holding on to a somewhat smallish cattail as the March wind blows. Looking forward to those April showers.
Heading Home
As the sun heads towards the horizon a group of American Bison head west towards that setting sun.
Snow still covers the ground spring is on the way.
Hope your weekend is going well and don’t forget to set those clocks ahead.
