These are the faces of those that had been awaiting slaughter at the gavel of this Federal Judge in Helena.

Thank goodness for the good and thoughtful governor Brian Schweitzer who saved them from the impending massacre

Here are some of the faces of the lucky herd to be saved.












Up here in the far north of the country the cold winter bring with it many beautiful ice sickles I have
decided to bring you a few of the crystals hanging around















Also in the winter time the ducks come down into local ponds here in Livingston to soak up some needed rest and maybe do some early courting before the long awaited spring.
Mainly wood ducks and mallards attended this party at the pond in Sacajawea Park
