A peek at our bison 🦬 babies (calves) this year.

The elk have about 3 calves so far, but I haven't been able to get a picture yet.

This spring has been BUSY.

Things like this is why I haven't posted much.

Tree fell on animal enclosure fence. Got real luck that none of the bison got out!

Another awesome sighting from Paige. We love our backyard. The area brings so many different wildlife being near a river that's apart of a large conservation area.

Amazing shot of the moon between silver maple branches from fiancée. We feel so lucky to live in front of a large conservation area.

My crew is finally able to get around to destroying some #invasivespecies.

This week we cleaned up around a nearby #pond, but job's not finished!

The 2nd pic shows how much more we have to do!

Progress pics coming soon!

ID that tree!

#Hint: its bark is both fireproof and waterproof.

#Hint: this tree is considered a living fossil!

It's wild to see how much invasive species such as autumn olive and honeysuckle can obscure from view.

This at one of our historic location called Missouri Town.

Don’t know why I love this picture I took at an abandoned home in Texas. Nature always finds a way.
