About Dayphoto

My name is Linda Brown. I live on a farm on the western slope of Colorado, in the high mountain desert. I’ve lived here all my life, hailing back four generations on my father’s side. Today I blog about our farm, the everyday activities that keep the farm going. I also write about my thoughts and dreams and goals. On Friday’s I always write about TLC Cai-Cai. Our sweet kitty who helps keep the farm safe. And Boo Berry Betty, a breeder dog learning to be a Farm Dog! The lovely thing about blogging it opens the world up for all of us to reach out and meet people from many different cultures and different ways of life. You can find me every day (but Saturday) at https://coloradofarmlife.wordpress.com/ Your Friend on a Western Colorado Farm, Linda Brown

FIRST CUTTING OF HAY — Sunday, June 2, 2024

Time to cut hay!  it is starting to bloom!  When the hay just starts to bloom the protein content is the highest.

Our world smells like just mown hay.

Delicious!

In the Lush Green of the Earth — Wednesday, May 29, 2024

In the lush green of the Earth

The dashing

The tiny ones patiently waiting

The excitement of being alive

Ah—yes!  Flap the wings and fly High.

Earth…and those things on the earth —- so very, very wonderful!

Caught on the Game Camera —- Tuesday, May 28, 2024

I’ve been having a bit of a problem with the raccoons—so I put out a game camera to see what I could see–

No, raccoons, but a darling Mom and her little one moving through the farm as the full moon sang to Earth among the million stars dotting the dark blue sky.

So cute!  (They don’t eat my flowers (so far) I only plant things they don’t like.  Therefore, I get the thrill of tiny hoof prints in the soil.

The Rhythm of Spring— Sunday, May 26, 2024

In the soft, soft days of Spring—

The joy of making a nest casts a rhythm into each and every bird—

(from my archives)

Bringing to the earth a calm

(Killdeer nest-from my archives)

A subtle sense of joy, happiness, and completeness!

(from my archives)

(from my archives)

I love Spring.

From my world to your heart,

Linda
