As a Bird Hunter I am drawn to the Abandoned Farmsteads that dot both The Southern and Northern Great Plains Landscape.The Shelter Belts that surround the old homesites are a sanctuary for Wildlife.An oasis to get out of the cold winds of winter and most provide nesting cover once Spring rolls around.
Ontop of being a “sure bet” that there is going to be a Covey or two of Huns hanging around somewhere, to me they represent an era of hardship as Homesteaders tried to scratch out a living, some did good while others failed.They all have stories and some very cool old things to look at.
