A couple of Common Redpoll foraging at the base of the big hay stack, ever watchful of the two Rough-legged Hawks floating over the fields.
The"Butte" shining in the vanishing mid-winter sunlight.
Three Red-tailed Hawks dogfighting above, one colourful young one in prime condition (sexy) vying for attention perhaps ...
while another Rough-legged Hawk and a Common Raven abandon their skirmish to perch on adjacent fence posts, watching the action above.
Little day's list:

Yes, isn't it just the prettiest! That is Pine Butte Ranch - a very ecologically friendly cattle operation and where they hold the trials for herding dogs. The ponds are good in migration, too, frozen over now, of course.
