Surrounded By Buffalo Guests
Jul 23, 2021
When you live on the prairie, there are a variety of guests that show up at your door. Those guests include, birds, bunnies, racoons, snakes, toads, etc.
Some are more welcome than others.
Perimeter fences are built around the houses and out buildings, keeping the larger animals out.
My studio however, is tucked into the hillside of a thousand acre pasture, without a fence around it. A couple of weeks ago the Buffalo were moved into this pasture and during this time they have paid me several visits. They are very curious animals when not threatened and have an escape route. I've been videoing some of my experiences to share with you, and I hope you enjoy the buffalo visits as much as I did.
And, no, it never gets old.
P.S.: Make sure you watch to the end, as a baby fawn makes its first video debut!

I love it! Especially when they were busted eating your flowers and stopped chewing in their tracks before sheepishly scattering….that was too great!
What an amazing experience! Years ago I lived across the road from Taos Pueblo Buffalo and every now and then they would manage to lean on the fence long enough to push it over! Then they would head down the road to the village!
Jill – good stuff! Thanks for the video
