1106_1231 Texas Longhorns

Some areas of Grasslands National Park (Saskatchewan) are still very far from resembling native prairie. Park managers, for example, are trying various methods to limit if not eradicate crested wheatgrass, an introduced plant that chokes out native prairie vegetation. In this area they are trying some early season controlled grazing, while limiting public access. I made this shot as a storm was clearing; if that blue sky doesn't look pure blue, that's because it consists of a solid wall of dark. blue-grey cloud.
