Not Quite A Canyon Drive

Well, I headed out today for Spearfish Canyon...got as far as Sturgis and turned around and came back home, disgusted...was driving right into a front from the North and the lighting went down the drain...on the way back I took one of the dirt roads E of the Hills...

As you can see, it's finally greening up here in the mid-west...looking W towards the Hills...

I think the farmers teach their cows at an early age how to give strangers a distainful look...

Well hey, the red-winged blackbirds are back! Saw a male with really bright red patches but of course it was one of those drive-by, "Oh crud, there goooooes a good shot" moments...

I was actually excited to get my first 'take-off' shot of the year. How sad is that?!  ;o)

  2. Those calves are giving you a serious stare, Jann...I think the rusty colored one has a human quality to his face.

  7. Great to see animals enjoying the green grass. I think we have the same problem Jann..the weather...and the best photo opportunities are through a moving car window! Love the take-off with undercarriage withdrawn. FAB.
