#Cee’s B &W Challenge: Pets and Farm Animals

I posted a picture for Bushboy’s Last Day challenge. Here is the same picture cropped, framed, and unsaturated for Cee Neuner’s Black and White Challenge. I’m surprised it is a bit pixilated looking.

Tulare County, especially where we live in Elderwood, CA primarily derives income from agriculture. On my walks, I encounter a plethora of farm animals. This black and white dude is one of my favorites.

This next BIG guy has plenty to say. He’s a LOT of bull. He must be reacting to election season.

In our neighborhood we do not have walking paths, but we have roads with little traffic or houses. One of the problems we had living in the country has been loose dogs that have killed our kittens. Most dog owners keep their dogs under control. These dog owners get a thumbs up from me.

These goats live down the road from us. They romp in the slope down to Cottonwood Creek that runs behind our house about two weeks out of the year.

You can’t have a farm without at least one of these stubborn “animules.”

Let’s take one last look at our farm animals and pets from Elderwood, California.

Vince and I just listed our home and plan to move to Prescott, AZ in the near future. We hope that someone will love it here as much as we have.

Hi, I’m Marsha Ingrao, a retired educator and wife of a retired realtor. My all-consuming hobby is blogging and it has changed my life. My friends live all over the world. In November 2020, we sold everything and retired to the mile-high desert of Prescott, AZ. We live less than five miles from the Granite Dells, four lakes, and hundreds of trails with our dog, Kalev, and two cats, Moji and Nutter Butter. Vince’s sister came with us and lives close by. Every day is a new adventure.

      Hi again, Donna, When I was about ten my father started taking me on photo shoots and then we would develop the picture in the darkroom. Those are some of my best memories with him. I still love black and white, but it’s sure a lot easier now. 🙂
