The Journey Continues
The Journey Continues: A column on the cold
Because of the recent cold weather, my journey brought back memories of winters past. I spent my formative years in west Texas on a ranch (cow/calf operation); and winter was not a good time to be a cow. Mother cows were range cows with no man-made structures for protection. During the bitter cold mornings, my task was to break the ice crust on the stock tank/pond with an ax in the early morning hours for the cows to access water. In tandem, dropping bundle feed or hay off the back of a pickup completed the work — Cold, cold! 03/07/2021 05:00 AM

EXPLORING NATURE: BIRDS & COLD WEATHER
After our recent spell of Arctic weather, I am happy to see my backyard birds seem to be in good shape. I have a nice mixture, with robins, chickadees, titmice, goldfinches and cardinals. Plus an occasional black vulture which likes to wade in my birdbath. 03/07/2021 05:00 AM
