Checking Cattle

The farmers have to constantly check their cattle to insure the numbers are the same and none of the cows are injured. this is especially true during the Spring calving season. Some have even started using drones to save them from the elements such as mud and snow. Perhaps a farmer has trained this Eagle to be his "spy in the sky." I discovered this beautiful scene before the weather turned to snow and ice. I did see an Eagle high in the sky around this same place over the weekend, so it must have been on duty.

The bare tree against a beautiful sky , the cows doing what they do best and the eagle keeping an eye and waiting for a movement in the grass showing something like a rabbit or some such animal. Very nice picture Tick.

Awesome capture, Tick. It reminds me of a scene of old western movies that I still love.

Owd Fella Tick (OFT), this is a splendid shot. The exuded atmosphere is relaxing and wonderful, in spite of the presence of the observing eagle.
S+F instantly. Thanks for sharing this beautiful one, 👍 !

Postcard Perfect, Cap'n!

...This could've even been a setting well over a hundred years ago, had they the photographic technology of today, back then... Goes to show that just a few things in life - don't change!

Well done... Faved
