A Mid-Winter Flood

Well we had a mid-winter flood! The weather just seemed to get warmer and warmer and then viola a meltdown! Good thing there was no hay in this round bale holder, because it would have been ruined.
Its a pretty big pond for this time of year...takes up a good portion of the field. It is supposed to drop to -19 tomorrow and stay cold for a while....so soon we will have a big ice rink in the field. And I supposed that bale feeder will be stuck there for the rest of winter. Ah good old Canadian winters!

Buckleberry decided that he would rather drink from this new pond than from the heated water tubs. What a silly boy. He HATES the water heaters in the tanks, he is afraid of them, lol. So any reason or excuse he can find to not use the tanks is great with him :)



With the sunlight and one lone horse drinking from a temporary pond this picture struck me as a unique picture. I like it.

I like it too. Will you skate on it? Hope the boys and girls don't try it. The weather here in AR is acting like that cold one day and to warm the next.
