Found this out walking! Tentatively identified as a Plainview projectile. 9000 to 10,000 yrs old.
Believe it.
Tiger striped cow! Giving me the eye in South Texas.
Get better soon! Yes that has to hurt! Grace and peace!
Whelp, my arm/elbow is looking pretty…and swollen. #occupationalhazard #vetslife
No electricity for water pumps.
Nurse cow Elsie with her calf and 3 orphans. Gotta feel good to get all that milk out!
A Butcherbird aka Loggerhead Shrike captured and stored this moth on a barb for the future!
A scorpion with little ones on its back! South Texas is scorpion paradise! Yard work, Loading square bales ‘hay’, Pulling green corn all could be hazardous! However I prefer 'zapps’ from scorpions over wasps or honey bees as they dont hurt as much. According to my grandfather when dried corn was hand harvested 'pulled’ and tossed into a mule drawn wagon the harvester could expected many scorpion stings on his/her hands. Asking about gloves he replied gloves made it difficult to grip the corn so were not used.
Javelinas at my old feeder. Hunting is awesome but many ranches round abouts have killed off their javelinas because they eat under the deer feeders and scare the deer. People are surprised that I have any around. So for me its 'how to keep the pesky deer from eating my javelina food!' Javelinas tend to have 2 "reds" or a set of twins. See one in the pic.
Mostly photos of my life in South Texas. I share what I love. The Outdoors and Ranch Life.
