A Red Tailed Hawk And A Good Horse

Winter is long. So Long, long, long, long, LONG! Tick! Ten Minutes Later. Tock! I can only watch so many food network shows. My grocery bill should be shrinking with no kids in the house but it isn't trying all these great recipes.
My friend Richie Rich opened his mouth at the wrong moment saying we really ought to make a music video. Not an iMovie but a real music video. So naturally I jumped on this opportunity. My already over-active brain went into a high speed over drive and with it being winter and all and decided that my song," A Good Horse" from my Once Sated CD would be the perfect song to do a video on. So we bundled up a few snowy Saturdays ago, packing up tripods and movie cameras and went out to Reyna's horse farm for a shoot. It was lovely seeing Reyna riding her handsome horse, Fred through the woods and fields with the white and black and gray wooded rolling hills and Lebanon Reservoir in the back ground. JImmy Wunderlich and his shy giggle girl daughter also came out an we got shots of him as the lone cowboy blowing his sad harp in the swirling snow.
So yesterday we recorded the guitar and mandolin tracks and watched some of the footage Rich shot. Its a learning project for me to say the least. So here are some shots of the session and some shots of a red tailed hawk guarding his kill of what looked like a rabbit that I got on my way over to the recording session outside of Poolville. What a gorgeous bird! He was a little camera hog that bird!
