The Newborn
Gale F. Trapp, 2012
It’s spring and the newborns are out. At one time, this scene would have been common throughout the Western plains, one more turn in the cycle of life.
And then came the near extinction of the buffalo, and this scene became less common; a cause for celebration as conservationists, ranchers and others worked to preserve the buffalo herds.
I love that this image could be one from the past, as well as the present, as buffalo herds grow and once again roam the prairie. Nature doing what nature does.

Yes, thankfully there are people who take action to try and preserve the gifts we often don’t recognize.
Isn’t that the truth. Too often we take things for granted… until they are gone.
An absolute truth!
