Spring on the Tallgrass Prairie

Charmin · Apr 10, 2011

Pictures of buffalo and redbud trees my daughter took the other day. The buffalo have really starting having their babies in the last week or so. We even saw one that was just born and its mama was still cleaning it off.
Hope you all enjoy!

Thanks Silver Searcher--Yes, I think the black ones are some kind of swallow-tail butterfly....We need to research and see exactly what they're called.

Thanks RGINN. We always look forward to the redbuds, cause we know spring has sprung when they start blooming.

great pics everyone. I saw a monarch butterfly on his migration yesterday. Spring has sprung :icon_sunny:

crazyjarhead · Apr 12, 2011

Beautiful pics, SC. I love spring as it is my favorite time of year. I bet those pastures would be a good place to detect............minus the Buffalo

Well, now that you mention it, CJH, we did find a neat old cellar and detected around it(keeping our eyes on the buffalo and my truck between us the whole time!) I don't know why the cellar was out in the middle of nowhere like that---And there were guy-wires(SP?) all over the place. Lots of glass and junk iron, too. It might have been an old producers house location(oilfield workers).
Thanks!

Mental Granny · Apr 12, 2011

Probably like you said old oil field workers they might have lived it tenrs or crude temp huts but had the cellar hole for you know that dreaded word T ---T -- TT I can't say it ! :laughing7:
