More from Potholes and Prairies:
Katdoc called this “the most photographed barn in North Dakota.” Certainly true while we birders were there!
There’s something about a barn that just begs to be photographed.
There were other interesting structures, too, such as the round building on the right. We watched a Say’s Phoebe flying in and out of the top, obviously feeding its nestlings.
You can see the house in the background.
Not all interesting structures are constructed.
That is a very cool barn – with very cool pictures!
Thanks, everyone – I’m so glad you like the barn pics. They just sort of happened, in amongst all the bird photos. A few years ago I wouldn’t have taken a photo for the sake of taking it, but I’m starting to do that more now.
Wow these are really cool building like we do not see them over here
Beautiful post!
do barns always have small windows? Barn dances might be too hot. You are lucky to get to photograph such a famous barn.
What fabulous shots of gorgeous barns and wood and trees.
Barns are certainly interesting buildings.
You’ve got a nice collection of wood in these shots!
Great shots. The barns are so attractive. I love that old worn wood.
Old barns tie us to our pioneering farming forebears. Great shots!
That’s a nice thought, Pat. It hadn’t occurred to me, but it resonates.
I love old barns! What terrific captures, Wren! I love them. And it does look like a great place for birding! Glad you had a great time! Enjoy your week!

Any trip led by Julie Zickefoose is a great time! She’s awesome as a birder and awesome fun, too.
Love the barn shots, great photos!
These are all such wonderful shots. I love old barns and you captured this one as well as other structures and landscapes so well.
My favorite is the close up of the window and fence, which I didn’t expect when I took the series.
I agree that barns beg to be photographed and who are we to say no.
Enjoy the new week.
I like that thought. Never argue with the universe, or a building.
Beautiful series, nice details

Seen on My World Tuesday
I do LOVE barns so I can certainly understand why photographers are drawn to it. The roof lines are wonderful.
It looks like a delightful place to go birding.
Cool – I got my first Say’s Phoebe in Spring! Hope you got good pics!
Too distant, unfortunately. These birds weren’t as acclimated to people as the ones in Florida, which makes sense if you consider the population density of the two areas.
