Landscape

Took this yesterday evening from behind the house.
On the distant hill, I like the way the rancher feeds cow's, by rolling those round bales down the hill. There are some deer in the picture you may be able to see in the crop.

pretty view.

Rolling hay out like that ensures all the livestock can feed as well as by spreading the animals out, the damage to the field is minimal. If you have them standing around in the same spot, it creates quite the mud hole. I like that view too!

Wouldn't want to be at the bottom of that hill after a week or more of a heavy monsoon rain in that first pic. I can see evidence of slow ground movement. It's just a mater of when in the right conditions for a mudslide to take place at that location someday. There was a landslide back in 1979 up by the mine I worked at that knocked out the rail line that serviced the mine. It was a very rainy spring that year. When I drive by it today you'd never know the ground came rushing down off the mountain 35 plus years ago now, because nature has completely covered up all the rock and debris from that slide today.
