Texas Hill Country bluebonnets near Burnett, TX.

In the Tehachapi area there is a large heard of mustangs. They look like they have morgan bloodlines and the history of the area seems to back this up. These horses are beautiful and more refined than the typical mustang. They are on private property so to see them one must contact the person keeping watch over them.

One of the cutest wildlife are baby fawns. These fawns are in Bear Valley Springs, California. The have been "hidden" by their mother while she goes off to eat. They are curious and look around instead of just lying under the large pine tree.

In Bear Valley Springs there is an indigenous elk herd that wander the valley unrestricted. They are often found hanging out in the meadow around the 3 lakes in the valley. Although most people know to stay way back from these magnificent wild animals, some people new to the valley get way too close to these wild animals, endangering themselves and the elk.

David Murdock purchase of painting done of his Ventura Farms property at a paint out in 2011.

The final morning of the paintout in Tehachapi was spent with wild Morgan mustangs in Oak Creek Canyon. There were about 85 horses in the herd with 7 stallions and their mares and also young stallions not accepted by any group. There were several foals wanting to join the fun, but staying fairly close to Momma for a quick snack when the mood struck.
