I had the opportunity to visit Oklahoma's Tall Grass Prairie Preserve recently with an artist friend for a day of plein aire painting. There were some wildflowers blooming although it is still a bit early in the year. We chose this scene for the distant view and the few wild flowers. We enjoyed this cool and windy day, had our sack lunch, and stayed on the lookout for bison. None were to be seen, guess they were beyond a hill somewhere. We did, however, see the long horns.....and they saw us, stopping their chewing to observe our activities.
We are fortunate to have the preserve in Oklahoma and to have it near enough for a day trip. It is a pleasure to visit and see the changes with each season.
