through the stiff stubble of december

sheep and chickens
rizzle and scratch,
trying to fill their winter-hungry stomachs.

They have their work cut out for them. This photo is a wonderful rural composition.

Winter is coming... and I am hungry too.

I am not going to play scrabble with you. Rizzle?

Nice scene, brattcat.

And yet, it's easier now than it will be with snow on the ground, yes?

Lowell said...

So where's all the snow? That would make it even harder for these hungry critters!

Excellent image and is very much like I might picture a Vermont farm.

Great shot.

All free range up your way? Pretty tough on the animals during a Vermont winter.

Life sure is tough on the farm hey Brattcatt, and I'd patent that word 'rizzle' it's a beauty!
