Earlier this week I visited the 8000-acre Neal Smith National Wildlife Refuge near Prairie City, Iowa.
There I found some leftover autumn color:
I hope to return in the summer when the prairie flowers are blooming.

I enjoy natural. I wish there were more places like this.
ReplyDeleteMy pastures look like this with the native grass....minus the buffalos.
ReplyDeleteI love scrolling through your posts, looking at your photos. They each one offer a peek into your special world. The diamond droplet on the spirea leaf is amazing - the shape of it. I agree with your daughter about the Fire photo. It's furious! Sepia Fog is a fave too - I can hear the stillness. You pull at my heartstrings when you write about doing calf chores - bringing back memories of my own childhood growing up on a dairy farm. What a fabulous life you lead. I know it's a whole lot of hard work, but there's truly no better life that living on a farm. The glow on the grain bins says it all. I think you should enlarge the first shot of the Prairie too - it's gorgeous. I'm a sucker for photos of grasses and that one soars. Happy day to you Jeanelle.
ReplyDeleteI can hardly wait to see the beautiful pictures you get there this summer when there is a lot of color.
ReplyDeleteI bet this place is buzzing with life in summer time and oh the flowers must be spectacular.
ReplyDeleteI bet you could see some awesome sunsets and sunrises there!
