Eastern Kingbird on wire fence
Fields on the Carden Alvar (aka Carden Plain - northeast of where I live) is mostly used for cattle and horse ranching. Fencing there is rustic, posts usually made of cedar.
Posts are well fortified as much of the soil on the Carden is shallow
Cedar split rail fence
I showed you a cedar slit-rail fence last week but this is a little bit different.

Great fences & love the bird!
ReplyDeleteI've often wondered how effective split rail fences are. I've never seen one on a cattle ranch here in Texas and we have plenty of cedar wood. Of course barbed wire is the standard here; although it's not full of character like the split rails it gets the job done.
ReplyDeleteGreat shots - just love the character of weathered timber! Happy weekend to you.
ReplyDeleteLove that little bird.
ReplyDeleteThe fences may be simple but I'll bet it was plenty of work to construct them eons ago. I love how that wood weathers.
ReplyDeleteNice rustic fences!
ReplyDeleteI really like that style of rustic fencing. I wonder if I could convince my son to build one. Hmmm.
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos of those great ol' rustic fences.
