Wed. Mike went on the 4 wheeler to see if the missing two cows were stuck in the BLM permit. Drove to the last hill before the river and walked to the gate...sure enough they were there. So he opened the gate and walked them to the river but they wouldn't cross the ice. So, the next day he went on horseback.
Were he's heading
Tracks
There they are
Had to break ice and salt the rest to get them across
His helper
On the right side of the river heading home. They are pretty thin as the side they were stuck on had been grazed off, probably hadn't been drinking much either. Not to mention it was a rough summer and none of the cows are fat.
We see flocks of Rosy finches in the river canyon, hundreds of them
My Goldfinches came back to the feeder
And brought along a Redpoll, never had one of these before. He's very cute.
3 degrees yesterday, nice and sparkley
Jill had frosty whiskers from running with the 4 wheeler
Bred heifers
Finally got the 1 1/2 yr old fillies weaned
