Prairie Vistas

I only wish my photo could really show the miles of rolling prairies near my house...and impart how I feel when I look out over the horizon. I was out yesterday looking for Prairiechickens (look it up, they’re a native bird species) gathering on their mating grounds doing their mating dances

They look pretty rolling to me.

@Blodyn Thank you 😊; glad you enjoyed it!

Blodyn · 22-25, F

@CantExplain I so did.

I love all the openness of the miles of rolling prairies. I am always ready to see and be there, then to be around the hustle and bustle of any city.

CantExplain · 61-69, M

@JerseyGal oh my, so nice to read of your delight in these native vistas. There’s a serenity that rolls across the hills. So glad you are always read to enjoy the prairies.

It is probably very beautiful when it is spring. Really nice picture.

@JessicaVl yup, in a couple of months the Evening Primrose, Penstamon, Butterfly Bush and other native flowers will color the prairie palette 🎨

Love it all!

The photo suffices. I can imagine the flatness and rolling of the plains. And, yes, the buffalo too. It is like a scene from time. Thank you for it.

@PoetryNEmotion indeed, the herds of bison crossing the plains like a scene from the Serengeti…thank you for your thoughtful reply 🦬

I don't think I could live on the plains. I need mountains and forests to be happy.

CantExplain · 61-69, M

@DearAmbellina2113 we both are inspired by wide-open vistas - just different ecosystems. BTW, I lived in the Wind River Mtns of Wyoming...so I know those vistas as well 😀

@Elevatorpitches You got it!! I Can’t Explain why my eyes delight in the rolling prairies…maybe the vistas tickle something primal in my brain 🧠
Thanks for the music 🎶

@acpguy great photo. The bluffs are really cool. Where was this taken?

acpguy · C

@CantExplain Near Badlands, SD in the Buffalo Gap Grasslands

CantExplain · 61-69, M

@acpguy that’s my kind of place. You can just about imagine the herds of bison moving across. Thanks for the posting.
