Spring equinox
I wandered south with two dear friends
we found wildflowers blooming
in the sage lands
(Yellow Bells, Fritillaria pudica)
a rabbit in a most unlikely place
an old abandoned car
buttercups
high in the hills
an old barn
So Montana
a herd of deer
one with antlers
curious horses
all in the Sage Lands of Montana
Sweet Spring
or
Autumn
to each of you

Lovely! VERY Montana, indeed.
ReplyDeleteI agree, very Montana!
DeleteAnd beautiful lands they are. :)
ReplyDeleteI am glad you think so, but of course you do ;-)
Deleteje te souhaite un beau printemps...!
ReplyDeletethank you Elfi
DeleteWhat a wonderful road you took with your friends and so many lovely things to see along the way. That adorable little rabbit and the yellow bells and buttercups feasting our eyes with their sunshine vibrations! Love the horses with their pointy ears looking at you with interest, perchance you have a carrot or an apple in your pocket!
ReplyDeleteno carrot or apple, that would have been nice. they were simply curious of us.
Deleteit was a wonderful road to wander along and see what there was to see and it was endless the treasures along it!
Thank you for stopping by.
Hahaha!!
ReplyDeleteIf one person noticed that question on my blog, it had to be you!!!!
Thanks Tammie, at least someone is paying attention! LOL!
Montana is very beautiful and wild place, the kind of place I love to discover at least through your lens if not in person :) ... One day maybe!
I loved the bunny!
Keep well and when you've the answer to the question.... let me know!!!
I was surely a bird... ;-)
So glad you enjoyed that i noticed that question. The other quotes caught my eye as well, but thought commenting on one was enought. :-) Thank you for your visit Noushka
DeleteHow gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteIt is a pleasure to see your blogs.
ReplyDeleteTomás.
What a sweet bunny -- and what a fine eye you have to spot that discretely concealed bunny!
ReplyDeletebunnies do not show themselves often. They usually hide long before i see them. I think arriving by car is how we did it.
Deleteand so very beautiful. loved seeing these. you live in an amazing land.
ReplyDeleteIts wonderful how such vastness can contain such intricacy and richness. Beautiful photos.
ReplyDeleteWow sooo beautiful!!!Love seeing these shoots!!What a spring feeling!!
ReplyDeleteHugs!
I want to follow that dusty road with you and see the Yellow Bells myself! Our winter has returned with more snow on the way. Smell the flowers for me and keep an eye out for the Calypso Orchids!
ReplyDeleteHello Barb,
DeleteIt would be fun to share the dusty road with you. So fun to be able to see wildflowers before they appear here.
Wow wow to all the snow. We have gotten some in our moutons, today it is rain at my elevation.
I will be looking for the Calypso! They usually bloom in my woods the end of May. Hoping to see other lady slippers too.
sweet spring to you!
What a nice way to celebrate the first day of spring! Sage green is one of my favorite colors. It is a real treat to see it in the wild. Thanks for sharing the flowers. We had snow today.
ReplyDeleteI agree, a very nice way to begin spring!I hope you are enjoying the late snow. Raining here.
DeleteBig sky country indeed! Cute rabbit.
ReplyDeleteHello, so happy to be here again, and this nature and animals are awesome! So fun with the rabbit in the old car, wondering what does he/she think about that, maybe a proper house for it, or a hiding place.
ReplyDeleteWishing you a lovely early Spring time! :)
It is so nice to have you stop by. Welcome back to blog land!
DeleteYes, it sure looks like Montana.
ReplyDeleteLove. Pure love. Those rabbits, those curious horses (my favorites) all say LOVE to me. The quiet of nature always takes me home.
ReplyDeleteTammi Lee, thank you for visiting and leaving a comment. ENJOY THIS DAY!
Whenever I see an old, often dilapidated barn I shut my eyes, and try to visualize the barn being built. The walls, the roof, even the animal arrival. How much excitement when into it. The promise of a new start, on a new land. At one time, every old barn was once new. Love.
ReplyDeleteThat is a lovely thing to do Karen. I often wish the building could tell it's tales. Who it housed, what happened there, etc.
DeleteFabulous!
ReplyDeleteI love everything,land,wild flowers,animals,the Dutch barn.....
Thank you for sharing your Montana.
Happy Tuesday Tammie!
Ruby
Love that. So much to see in that great state.
ReplyDeleteLove the photos! That area is very, very wet this morning. I'll pass that old barn today. You picked a good day to come south!
ReplyDeleteYes, it is raining here as well. But not pouring like I hear it is farther south. Fun to think of you passing that barn today. Yes, last weekend was beautiful.
DeleteWhat a lovely old barn! I like it. The yellow flower is a pretty spring sign.
ReplyDeleteYour deer is very different from the deer living in our Nara Park. There are around 1000 deer in the Park. They are very tamed. Have a good new week,Tammie.
1000 deer is a lot of deer! This herd was large as well. I usually only see 2- 6 deer at one time. Our deer are not tame, unless you feed them (but we are not suppose to do that), then they become more tame.
Deletewow....I am so envious of your backyard....
ReplyDeleteHappy Spring to you too Tammie! Looks like a beautiful one.
ReplyDeleteThank you everyone for all your visits and lovely messages!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos!
ReplyDeleteAnother beautiful post .... nothing like a road trip to start off my morning ♥
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely walk with your friends! You’d be an expert of hide-and-seek to have found a rabbit in such a place, I guess. I like the barn standing alone under the big sky and the charming wildflowers and wildlife. Sweet spring to you, too.
ReplyDeleteYoko
Hi Tammie, I was not around a while and only today enjoyed your beautiful last posts. From snow and ice to the first lovely flowers of the new season, so great. And all these lovely deer! :-)
ReplyDeleteHere spring is almost over - we were lucky and had a lot of rain which started the new growth early on and it was plenty. Israel has a big range of wildflowers. My blog shows a link to my husbands picasa albums, if you are interested to have a look.
Enjoy your spring time!
So beautiful post!
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter!
Hug Crissi
Oh I've loved visiting here again, all of your photos are exquisite, each one special in its own way, full of space, wild beauty, sky and fresh air, such a treat! Happy Easter week-end to you!
ReplyDeleteHappy Spring to you!!! OK that bunny is SOOOO cute!!! All great shots but ... I just can't get over the bunny. :)
ReplyDeleteThe road and the barn as if are taken from a Western film - I expect to see the cowboys...:)Such a specific atmosphere! I haven't seen a yellow bell before - what a beauty!
ReplyDeleteHappy Spring, Tammie!!!
