Description
Drinking Buddies
In 2018 there's been severe to extreme drought conditions throughout most of Oregon. For the Palomino Buttes Herd, the usual year round waterhole has dried to a muddy puddle. Most of the horses are further in on the Palomino Buttes Herd HMA where BLM and a neighboring rancher have set up a trough. This bachelor band and some other horses have made their way back here, probably as there was a couple days of light rain in the past month. Note the muddy legs. Colts are often kicked out of their familial bands at around 2-3 years, sometimes even sooner, if another stallion takes over the band. They generally join a bachelor band until they are ready to steal or fight for their own band.

Nature, animals, beauty have been a source of nourishment throughout my life. Photography allows me to capture, interpret, and share that world of wonder I see about me, and sometimes use what I capture as an inspiration to create something new, by incorporating other exposures, textures or brushwork.
