Minnie still doesn't seem to mind, but man is he persistent. As soon as she lays down for a nap, he runs over and climbs on, then they both fall fast asleep.

I had high hopes that Albus was safe around babes, and he is a good daddy. He helped her bury the babies in the hay for warmth after carefully sniffing them.
Boulder, Colorado. This happens every year: the prairie dogs in a neighboring open space expand into the lawns of the office building complex. Illegal immigrants of a sort. The landlord has installed a fence to keep them out but about once a year, they figure out how to get through or maybe they tunnel underneath the fence.
Getting into the lawns does make it easier for the neighborhood hawks to find a meal, though. It's a little tough to see but the prairie dog is on the entrance to the burrow.
Oddly, it's humans that invaded the prairie dog territory. Also, In Boulder, one cannot kill prairie dogs so expensive re-location services must be used. BTW, one can kill mice and rats. Even though they all can (and often do) carry disease, often rabies.
I am out south of Pella turning toward Crane Hollow Hollow (the Marlatt family had a farm down the road). I turned west on St. Vrain Road but had to park immediately when I saw this scene. The nags seemed to be willing to keep on paying more attention to the grass than me and kept grazing. This series looks like a critters series to me.
Crane Hollow Road that winds back down into the valley, is usually a feast if the clouds are on their way over the Divide. Who knows what I can expect from the bit of sky I see over the hill. I better get several snaps right here before moving on.
Pella, right of the scene, north of the hill was an original St. Vrain river ford settlement but unlike Longmont, Pella has long disappeared, not that the river hasn't had a hand at rubbing it out. Almost all the water in St. Vrain River has similarly disappeared into lawns and gravel pits. At least the ground and ditch water is watering some habitat but this lush pasture comes at the courtesy of this May. Hygiene eventually sprung up north of old Pella with a health sanitarium.
Boulder County eventually reopened Pella Crossing Park at Hygiene after the flood a decade ago. I trekked it a couple of times recently. Who thought that a flood plain with multiple gravel pits, a river bottom and mill and irrigation ditches would ever flood in the age of global orange man warming... We have met the enemy and he that bold faced tweeter of 10,000 lies. Let's hope that the "bigger the lie" no longer holds sway as it did 70 decades ago in Austria and Germany. Apparently there are several prairie castle owners who prefer the flood plain north of the hill.

Nice, big capacity Holstein cow reaching for some grass on a late summer evening. Always good to get down to eye level and freeze the motion with a fast enough shutter speed.
Fazenda Mundo Novo covers 4200 hectares, 2900ha of which are pastures, 85% of which are Brachiaria genus grasses grown on Cerrado soils, sole source of feed for the Lemgruber Nelore cattle.
Animals are always turning their back to me when i'm photographing them. It's quite annoying and now a running joke.
Longmont, Colorado. Seeing this herd of buffalo (or are they bison?) makes me think of the Kevin Costner movie Dances with Wolves.
