Happy , Happy Wednesday! I hope your week has been a lovely one thus far. I thought I would post a "Not So Wordless Wednesday " post. It is like a "Wordless Wednesday post but with a few words. Hee! Hee!
One of our last destinations when camping was Pawhuska, OK. We always enjoy visiting the Joseph H. Williams Tallgrass Prairie Preserve. There you will find one of the largest bison herds here in the U.S. and the largest protected tallgrass prairie in the world. I hope you enjoy these few snapshots.

Aaw thank you so much, Isabel. I wish you the most delightful day as well. Hugs.
DeleteOh my he is handsome. LOL Love the new stamp. DarleneJ
ReplyDeleteI am just fascinated by the buffalo. The shaggy fella was adorable to me too. LOL. Have a great afternoon, dear Darlene. Hugs.
DeleteWhat wonderful pictures you shared! Oh my goodness, those babies are so cute. Are male bison called bulls? He is a handsome one.
ReplyDeleteAren't the babies the cutest? We saw 100's of buffalo and the little ones were something else. LOL. I do believe the males are called bulls. I like looking at them. It was a good day for wildlife. Thank you for the sweet visit, Robin. Have a lovely afternoon. Hugs.
DeleteLovely photos Melisa. You were in our old stomping grounds - Oklahoma. We grew up south of Tulsa, and Bartlesville (east of Pawhuska) was the first town we lived in after we got married. And you were in Pioneer Woman country - lol! Strangely enough, we have never visited the Tall Grass area, so that is on our bucket list.
ReplyDeleteOh wow, Linda. How fun? We love this area. We come to it quite often. Oh yes, we went to the Pioneer Woman Mercantile- just to look. We also walked up and down the street, but the highlight was the Tall Grass Prairie. I hope you are able to go visit it in the near future. We loved seeing all of the buffalo and it was a lovely drive as well. Thank you for the sweet Wednesday visit. Hugs.
DeleteWhat terrific photos of the bison! What a great trip you had!--TerryK@OnGoingProjects
ReplyDeleteOh thank you so much, Terry. We were thrilled to pieces with all of the wildlife we saw on this vacation. Usually we see a little but this time we saw all kinds. I hope you are having a great day. Stay cool. Hugs.
DeleteWhat a neat place to visit. You got great views of the bison. Thanks for the update on your newest stitch, too. I'm planning to start it this weekend!
ReplyDeleteOh thank you so much, Diann. We like to visit places like this especially when there is wildlife to be seen. We have never seen this many bison here before though- it was a treat. Thank you for the sweet visit and hope you enjoy the little stamp. Hugs.
DeleteHow magnificent those bison look. What a great place to visit.
ReplyDeleteOh Jenny, they are magnificent to see especially in person. They are big fellas too. I could have spent all day here just admiring the herd. Thank you for the sweet visit. Have a lovely day. Hugs.
DeleteOh Melisa, I didn’t know you were coming through Oklahoma!!! Next time ya’ll come through let me know! Did you go see the Pioneer Woman’s place too? I still haven’t been there and keep thinking I need to go visit!
ReplyDeleteHi Chari. Well I didn't know you were from OK. How wonderful. We love it there. We did go to the Pioneer Woman Mercantile. We usually go there just to see what's new when we pass through. It wasn't as crowded as the last time we were there but they had lots of pretties to admire. There was a great little antique shop down the street as well. Thank you for the sweet Wednesday visit. Warm Hugs
DeleteGreat photos of the buffalo. I hope you were using a zoom lens. Those puppies can be so easily spooked and a bit dangerous. Those babies are sweeties, too. Love the shots of inside the bunkhouse. Great kitchen! I miss the bison meat we bartered with the neighbor when I lived on the farm. Yum! Thank you for the correction.
