Evening Cow check. All is well. #beefstrong #cattlecountry #ranchlife So incredible to watch these majestic birds perform. #greatersagegrouse #sagegrouse #birdsofgrasslands Focused on foxes today! When raising their young, they live in small families—called a "leash of foxes" or a "skulk of foxes"—in underground burrows. Otherwise, they hunt and sleep alone. Like the cat, the fox is most active after the sun goes down. In fact, it has vertically oriented pupils that allow it to see in dim light. It even hunts in a similar manner to a cat, by stalking and pouncing on its prey. What does a fox say? – Well they make about 40 different sounds, the most startling though may be its scream. Thanks Dean for alerting me to the location and thanks Jacques Beauchamp for the detour and being chauffer, for the drive by shooting!! It takes a village and mine rocks! #fox #ranchlife #ranching Chestnut-collared Longspur today busy foraging for seeds and insects in our pasture North of Val Marie. The Chestnut-collared Longspur generally avoids nesting in areas protected from grazing or other disturbances that maintain short, sparse vegetation. Breeding territories are sometimes clumped together, so this species may at times be locally abundant; but as native prairie has disappeared, so has the Chestnut-collared Longspur. Estimates suggest the species population has declined by more than 87% since the 1960s (Sauer et al. 2015). Breeding populations in Nebraska and Minnesota, have been much reduced, and this species no longer breeds in Kansas, where it was described as abundant in the 1870s. #longspur #birdsofinstagram #environmentalsustainability #beef #cattlecountry #cattleranch #beefstrong #beefprotein #beefproteinsupportsbirds #moose this morning.
