Last Days in Livingston

 

Sunrise greets us to another beautiful day.

"Our" three juvenile ospreys return to the nest hoping for food.

Adult coming with heavy Shovelnose Sturgeon,
A rare find for this part of the Yellowstone River.

Here comes another dinner!


A Murder of American Crows congregate each morning at sunrise.

Common Merganser races away on Yellowstone River

Common Mergansers haul out to preeen, nap and rest.
One eye often open, slow wave sleep, enough to keep alert.

Crabapple laden limbs touch ground

Actively felling trees.....

Each night they rebuild dam that park staff remove each evening.

Livingston Health Care with Livingston Peak in the background.
A hospital we have made weekly visits with Daryl and his wife Vicki for his blood draws and every three weeks for his chemo treatments.  He is responding well for which we are all praising and thanking Jesus for His healing power.  We would like to thank prayer warriors and medical staff.  We enjoyed our extended stay, visiting, assisting with yard work, doing puzzles, playing games, baking,  cooking and walking their dog Toby.

While waiting, Ty explored the hospital grounds and found this White-tailed Fawn peeking out of the woods.

And it's twin grazing.

Hospital grounds included this bronze Eagle statue.

Love ❤️  & Prayers 🙏 
Ty & Ida Baumann
