gate

Love the sunflower at the top of the gate.

ribbon fence

I found this fence by a school, I'm guessing the school kids must have decorated the fence.

hairball fence

Heading down the country road as I always do I spied something quite unusual.  It's the first time I have ever seen anything like it.  I know nothing about cattle and their behaviors, but I am almost 100% sure that this fence was not a "hot" fence, meaning it had no electricity going to it so that they would keep away from it, and since it was not a hot fence the cattle could rub along side of it and not get zapped, therefore producing hairballs on a good part of the fence line.  I loved it when I looked up and the cattle were watching me, I'm sure trying to figure out what exactly I was doing.

{good fences}

This past winter, tho in some places it just might seem winter is still hanging around.  Any way this past winter there have been a lot of eagles hanging around the Ocooch Mountains here in Southwest Wisconsin.  My husband and I were heading home and this Bald Eagle was having dinner on some road kill that was along the side of the road.  It took off over the fence by the time we got close enough to take any kind of a great photo of it.

wildflowers

Around here we pretty much find these along the sides of the road in the ditches or growing right along the fence lines.

open gate

I hope whatever was on the other side of this fence didn't get out.

cowboy fence

 Found this on my way home from town.  

I just love driving down these country roads.

no tresspassing

It looks like someone used it for target practice.

rolled barbed wire

I pass this fence post on my way to town, and this rolled barbed wire has been on this post since we moved here in 2010.  I always wonder why farmers keep rolled up barbed wire on fence posts.
