Terry and took a wee ride about the farm, just for the fun of riding.
Our neighbors to the west of us also have their cattle grazing on last year’s stubble. Their bull watched very carefully everything we were doing.
They already have sweet little babies on the ground
Tiny little bits of happiness!

Looks like a very good herd of Angus beef cattle.
Looking forward to see what breed of cattle you get to winter agist
Cheers

Is that a big cottonwood in the background?

Yes I can’t remember if it is a Johnson or a Rio Grande. It is on the State’s largest tree of it’s kind list.

WOW! That is EXCELLENT that your tree has that distinction! I do not know, but I think that the Rio Grande cottonwood is one of the quaking aspens. I know that name from somewhere. We have only two native cottonwoods, and neither is an aspen.

Interesting! I didn’t know cottonwood was in the aspen family.

They are all specie of the genus ‘Populus’. Some say that cottonwoods are poplars. Some say that poplars are cottonwoods. Then aspen is in the mix too, although it tends to get a bit more respect.

My first were Lombardy poplars, which I planted for firewood. They were so pretty that I planted a row of nine along the driveway. I know it is a problem tree, but they are so pretty. Quaking aspens are not worth growing here. I have seen only a few that are happy in the mild climate. They prefer to be up in the Sierra Nevada. My Pa really likes them from his time in Colorado.

No snow. Although it is desperately needed here. For sure in the mountains, but we do need moisture down here to keep the plants alive.
