White bison occur rarely and sighting this one earlier in the week made for a very special event.  

White bison play a significant part in many native American religions.

Ground Squirrel

This little guy has a pretty nice place to live...just look at all the greenery.

Whitepool Elevator

After a few days away I was on my way home when I saw this...

...long abandoned grain elevator on the open prairie near Dodsland, Saskatchewan.

It's always a good feeling to see one of these old prairie sentinels still standing.
