Busy day! I was a tad bit early to the show… so I took some time for wildflower photography… Then I helped begin the AI process… which consists of a shot of Lutalyse, which is a prostaglandin. It synchronizes estrus, in other words, all our heifers should come into heat in the next few days……

Ruddy Duck
Town called my name ALL DAY today… So, a bit of yesterday’s tour… A blue billed Ruddy Duck sails by the cattle on Wire Corral Reservoir. Isn’t he pretty?
