TULE LAKE #2




Fire!


It looks ominous. A threatening cloud of smoke rises from the flats. 



Closer, it looks like the threat is even more critical. However, this is a pretty common and everyday thing in the spring. Tractors pulling "flame cultivators" put fire to a field just prior to tilling and planting for weed control.



Not only do crops thrive in this kind of environment, so do bird populations. Above, a male Ring Neck Pheasant has his eye on the hen in upper left of the next image.
