These pictures were taken a month or so ago but I just haven't post them until now. I had just downloaded a 30-day free trial of photoshop lightroom... ;)

Ben and I were rock-picking in one of the bean fields one afternoon and as we made a turn with the tractor at the end of the field Ben thought he saw a Killdeer nest. We went back later to see if we could find it and I took a few pictures...
.
Silas came along...
.

.I don't really know why I took this picture...it took a long time to find the nest.
.
But we did finally find it :)
.
yeah, I don't know why I took this one either... :P

We've had a lot of rain lately.
.
Our nearest lake is usually about eight miles away. This week, we don't have to go that far to find one.
.
This is our neighbor's pasture. Needless to say, it's not usually this wet. :)
.
...and this is another neighbor across the field. Nope that's not usually a lake...it's supposed to be a bean field. Too bad it isn't duck hunting season.

Then there were three...

.
Our three black kittens decided the deck was the best place to spend a hot afternoon.

~Whenever I pointed the camera at him, he'd wake up from his nap and strike a pose~

~I don't know where the third one came from. He showed up in the barn yesterday and has been hanging out with Karl and Larry ever since... :) As of right now, he doesn't have a name but he is affectionately known as "The Boogie Monster."~
