Home on the range is right, New England Style!
Gotta love how varied the New England landscape it!
Not the easiest livestock to raise, hehe! 😉
No, not by a long shot! Plus, the folks who raise them also make and sell their own craft beer. They must have lots on energy!
Gorgeous shots!
Thank you, Bridgette!
At first I thought that you went to the prairies of South Dakota! Aren’t the bisons beautiful? I’ve seen the roam the prairies on the West. Lovely pictures, Julie. 🙂
Thanks, H.J. These bison live about ten minutes down the road from me. I love to visit there, because it is a very open hilltop with great views. The bison are beautiful, however I must admit I was a bit scared when one “growled” at me! I made sure I was way back from the fence then! LOL!
The “snort” by the bison means: ” Wow! What a babe! 🙂
Ha Ha! 😉 😉
First a camel roaming in Massachusetts, and now bison?!! 😁 How cool, Julie!!! Do they allow you to feed them? Last summer, I hand-fed bison on a private farm in South Dakota last summer, and of course saw them roaming wild and free throughout SD, WY and MT. Amazing beasts!!
That is a lot of hard work to raise these bisons. Ours live on Antelope island and I come to see them from time to time. Julie, I enjoyed a lot looking at your wonderful photos and smiled when I saw the young ones.
I don’t know much about bison, but when I got close to them, I realized how big they are. It was a bit scary to be that close.
Beautiful photos, Julie. They are such imposing animals.
After your post on bison, I got wondering if these were actually bison or beefalo, and sure enough, the owner stressed that they were bison, which is not that common.They were VERY imposing close-up. I can’t imagine how Native Americans used just a bow arrow to deal with them, can you?
Hey Julie, checking to see if this comment comes through to you. Looks like my comments aren’t posting…..
