Early morning walks in spring ...

Livestock bask in the early morning sun
 
Since my job is pretty sedentary, I like to start the day with a walk on the ranch. It's particularly lovely walking at the moment because ... spring is finally here!  Several weeks ago, it was in the negative temperatures when I was walking (-15 one morning!) and now it's definitely in the positives, with daily temperatures reaching as high as 25.  The grass is green, the sky is blue, the mountains sparkle in the sunshine and everyone is smiling.  And an early morning walk in the spring is such a lovely way to begin the day.

Belle can't decide if she wants to go walking

Malibu scans the woods for something to chase

One of my favourite sights ... bare trees contrasted against the blue sky

The three bulls who were loose last week, but now safely locked up!
