I returned home from the Nebraska State Trap Shoot at Doniphan, NE last evening around 9:30 pm to the sound of toads croaking in the vast puddles created by the wonderful rain we recieved while I was gone. (Incidentally this youth shoot is the largest of it's kind in the world, with close to 2000 kids competing over the 3 day event. Watching 24 trap houses of 5 kids each shooting at once is quite a sight to behold and the investment in guns & accessories represented is mind boggling! This goes on all day long.)
This chorus of croakers got me to thinking about some of my other favorite ranch sounds. Like the smacking of a newborn calf sucking his mother. And a mare knickering to her newborn foal.
There are many other wonderful sounds that many of us take for granted on a daily basis. I got to thinking that this might be a fun topic for Ranchers.net. Forgve me if this ground has already been covered.
What are some of your favorite sounds?
