If it stays still for long enough, I'll take a picture of it.

Yes, I definitely live in the heart of agricultural land. What gives it away? Well, the scent of manure spreading for one (similar to CS these days & the political blogs). Secondly, the avid interest in anything dairy cow.
I'd mentioned in a blog last week how the photo of a cow was far better received than the photo of the parasail with the snow covered mountain peak in the background. One lady that lives in the area had asked me about a photo of a dairy cow. This morning while I was out, I took several photos of the cows, as they hung their heads over the fence, looking at me in reproach as I didn't have any food with me.
The woman has ordered 2 8x10 photos as she couldn't decide between two specific photos. While I was discussing price with her, another woman asked me for a photo of a crow. Funnily enough, I had taken one this morning, but the sun hadn't cleared the mountain yet, so the crow wasn't as defined as I'd hoped it would be. It wasn't as close as I'd like it to be either.
So, I'm pretty pumped at making the sales, even though I figured it would be almost anything other than cows and crows. lol.
This is my Ginger, A rescue cat. When things go bump in the night here, it is usually (but not always) her.
Or submit your own suggestion for the caption for the following nature photo;
From the California wildfires of 2009
In response to:
Di Sieno helped rescue the bobcat kitten in the photo a week before, near Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Ranch, where it was dehydrated and near death. Di Sieno nurtured it back to health. They rescued the fawn during last week’s wildfire. Although wild animals, especially of separate species, are never placed together due to regulations, in this emergency situation, they had no choice. During the mayhem of the fire, they were forced to put animals anywhere they could, since they had run out of crates large enough for the fawn. The kitten ran to the fawn, and it was instant bonding.
Most wildlife knows instinctively to flee fires – to fly away, burrow, or run – but some don’t make it out in time. Rescue workers walk near the fire line with nets, searching for any injured animals or young separated from their parents. “Burn victims go to the local care hospital,” says Di Sieno. “We rescued bunnies, squirrels, two fawns. We’ve rescued I don’t know how many geese, chickens ducks, cats, birds, turkeys, and a baby owl and a baby raptor.”
These were taken by me a few days after the huge snow storm, that we had in New Jersey a month ago.
There's STILL some of that snow left on the ground.
At the time almost everything was covered with a blanket of about 18 inches of snow.
The rare exceptions were where the plows had pushed snow off the street and got low enough
to scrape the ground. Food for wildlife was scarce. But these 2 knew where to find some.
