Life On and Off an Acreage

In-sights into moving from an Acreage back to Town, plus a few things I find of interest.

Two things that horses are scared about:


1. Things that move
2. Things that don't move




Old enough to be eccentric, but not rich enough

Watching the Sandhill Cranes

Daphne and I went for a small walk today while waiting for the Boss to be done with a meeting. The small walk turned into a sit down at the edge of a field to watch a Sandhill Crane perform. I didn't see the female. I'm assuming she was in the bushes at the edge of the field. Daphne was off leash, and I just told her to come and sit, and she did while I took a few photos (about 60). I won't bore you will all of them!


 They have an enormous wingspan!

I'm not sure what is with the lumps on the head. If he was a bear, I could see him popping his cheeks to show annoyance.




 Here is a view of the knobs. Cranes don't grow horns, so that can't be it.


 So long, adieu, until we meet again!
