I took over 250 pics over the little break I had, tried not to post to many, but as usual, I got a little carried away...sorry folks :oops:

Hope you enjoy them anyway. :)

This is what Spider looks like when I just got him up from a nice cat nap ;-)

Some unique wind chimes

This rock picked up in the field a long time ago looks like it has the USA imprinted on it...at least most of the USA...

105.jpg

Found part of a hornet's nest....at least what's left of it...

114-1.jpg

The best sign I could find (other than the fence) of the remnants of what used to be here...

I was bored...just wanted to see if I could get some "action" shots

An ultralight flew over the farm

Twigs and needles dripping with wet

The end of a pinecone

Another great optical illusion...they look like legs, but their actually aspen trunks wet from the 8/10ths of an inch of rain we got.

Robin on the fence

I can't believe he can sleep with his paws like that

Photos of paws

Thousands of Sandhill Cranes on their migration route north flew over the farm....this farm is on the migration route of these birds...the pics that show them all grouped together indicate that they hit a bit of a warm up-draft or bubble that they're resting their wings in. They were sure noisy!

And finally, but not leastly...

A couple pics I got for Xmas hanging up in my room made by an Albertan artist Bernie Brown (if any of you have heard of him).
 
Wow..you have been busy with the camera...Some really fun shots ya got too...although maybe just for dialup sake,,,post em in two posts, cause I'd hate for everyone not to see em...Pretty country and cute cats...
 
Jassy: thanks i had fun taking some different shots, got my creative side going there. I should've done that too (posting the pics in two posts i mean), next time i get that many pics to share i'll make sure i remember to do that.

CattleArmy: yes those wind chimes are quite something, can't remember were we got it, but it was sure neat the way the folks who made it had in mind the "reuse, reduce, recycle" thing putting together a tea cup, spoons, and a few ice-fishing lines.
