Out and About Today

The landscape is starting to turn green.  I'm on the old truck road looking to the main highway and the Yellowstone River.

Snow at the higher elevations

Looking towards Tom Miner, I live at the bottom of that mountain in the background.

Those white specs are new born calves.  A ranch not far from where I live.  Won't be able to eat red meat now for at least a week.

This is why I need a stronger lens, tiny specs are mule deer appreciating all that green grass to feed on.

Can you tell I love where I live.  When I feel sad, I try to remember all the years that Jim and I were able to live together in this beautiful, wild country.

Yellowstone River.

I'm still on the truck route.  Called that because the big trucks have to use it  to get to Tom Miner, they are too big to use the one lane bridge that crosses the Yellowstone River.

I'm on the highway now in Paradise Valley,  more cattle and more little calves. 

Our Lady of Lourdes Shrine.

Paradise Valley and more cattle with the mountains dusted in snow.

Another view.

A pair of Osprey on their nest.

This same pair have nested here for several years now, right on the main highway.  So wish I had a better lens, they are so beautiful and wish I could capture that beauty with a better pic.
