We received another 1.3" of rain yesterday, brings our total to
almost 4" for the week. :shock: We were out putting out mineral and checking cattle this morning. I thought I'd share some pictures:

This is a Mytty In Focus son and his second year of use. He was
born Jan. 08. We bred 50 heifers to these bulls last year and the report back was of only 1 heifer had to have help and that was by hand.
I really like this bull and he has a super disposition. Fed grass hay
this winter, no grain.



Lewis Cattle Oiler with some of the trimmings:



This cheatgrass is on a tough piece of ground. I'd never seen cheatgrass
that was lodged before, but here is some:



Per, we don't have as much water standing as you do, but we got
enough that it's running out the spillway on this resevoir.



We have some erosion from all the rain. Mr. FH has made some ditches
to divert the water from where it normally runs. Too late for this
spot tho.


What is normally, our little Sandstone Creek is now full to the banks:


Water standing in the pasture:



We don't normally see this much yellow clover, I suppose because the
ground is pretty heavy here, but this year, we've got lots of it.



This is a portable shed. There was a discussion about portable sheds
on another thread last winter or spring. We use this where we put the
2 year old with their calves after calving.



Guess that's all. I was a great morning to be alive and outdoors!!
Hope the pictures aren't too big.
