Dam
On the way home, I spotted something making its way across a cornfield, toward the creek. At first I thought it was a raccoon - the size was about right, but the carriage was wrong, so I pulled over to

Sacred Bull/Raging Cow
I haven't had time to go with John to check the east herd lately, but this morning I had no where to be, and wanted to tag along. I was looking forward to getting current pictures of the calves (specifically

High Maintenance Chicks
I've always imagined it'd be kinda cool to keep chickens in the house. And now that I am, I stand corrected. Those of you who have known me for any length of time, know that I have had an ongoing war with

Storm Clouds Gathering
One of the things I love about summer is the storms we get here. I shot this one three weeks ago, and I really liked the contrast between the clouds and the sky. But altering it to black and white gave

The Owl Diet ... ?
On one of my passes through Omaha over the weekend, I noticed a large billboard advertising the "Owl Diet." I finally gave in and Googled it, strictly out of curiosity as to whether the 30-40

Self Ownership and the Crazies Who Support It
One of the many adventures I had over the course of the past 48 hours was to join the Bloodstained Men in Omaha, NE. This is the second time in as many years I've gone to the Omaha protest. I felt this

Meet the Herd: Ida
I see her as an elderly woman from "The Old Country." Not saying much, she just stands in the background, chewing her cud while silently passing judgement. I'm rather of fond of her.

" ... And Hell's Coming With Me"
Well, I went on a run today. And for those of you who know my policy on running, you know something capable of killing me was following close behind. Normally when we check on cows, we can tell where Helena's

Fields of Gold
I was planning on getting a picture of this field in all its golden glory before it got harvested. Well ... that didn't happen. But I still think it's still beautiful, especially against the contrast of

Getting a Handle on Things
John fixed the handle on the door yesterday. Not the door to the house - that still locks me out every third time I leave. But it's summer, so I don't mind much. Plus it has made me pretty creative at

"Lost"
Small, genuine family farms and their tenders are all but gone; a broken windmill and dilapidated barn left as evidence of a dying way of life.

Furry Bastards and Buckets of Contemplation
Last night I spent a good hour walking our property looking for chickens remaining after the latest massacre. I was only able to find six total - three of each gender. After I got them carried to the roost,

Hoofin' It
From a distance, I initially thought she was a buck with an unusually shaped rack. Then I realized it was a stalk of corn hanging out of both sides of her mouth. By the time I pulled the camera out, I

Choosy Chickens Chose Jif
It apparently doesn't matter where science indicates you fall on the food chain - When a chicken wants something you have, you let them have it.

I have read several lengthy articles lately on how to accomplish your goals. Some of the information may be useful in the right hands, but I think I can do better in just three, easy steps. A) Set the

Being Watched
My husband called me on his way into town to tell me there was a fawn standing by the roadside about 1 1/2 east of our place. I headed that way, but found no fawn. I decided to walk along the creek line
