This beautiful estate just south of Laurel features a 2,400sqft modern home in Colonial style, barns, shop, garages and miscellaneous outbuildings. Ponds, springs, hills, draws and coulees adorn the private setting with mountain views. It's a hunting paradise, 3,500 bushes of Silver Berry, Buffalo Berry, Sumac and Juniper have been planted to attract pheasants and other game birds. There is a government program in place for another 5 years, that if you want to run livestock on the land, you would have to run a hot wire around the bushes to protect them from grazers. The platform you see is to train hunting falcons.

The land has a good cover of sagebrush as well. Big sagebrush is perhaps the most important shrub on western rangelands. Evergreen leaves and abundant seed production provide an excellent winter food source to numerous species of large mammals including mule deer, black-tailed deer, white-tailed deer, elk, pronghorn antelope, bighorn sheep and jack rabbits. Nearly 100 bird species depend on sagebrush ecosystems for their habitat needs. Additionally, there are several animal species having an obligate relationship with big sagebrush including sage grouse, sharp tailed grouse, pygmy rabbits, sage thrashers, sage sparrows and Brewer's sparrow. Sagebrush also provide habitat and food for hosts of invertebrates which in turn support birds, reptiles and small mammals. In addition to the numerous species of animals that depend on sagebrush for food and cover, there are several plant species having close relationships with sagebrush as well.

Sagebrush plants maintain high levels of most nutrients including crude protein. This high forage value makes it especially useful for wildlife, and in some areas livestock, winter grazing. Separate studies indicated that sagebrush made up 78% of the annual diet for antelope and 59% of the winter diet of deer and elk. Sagebrush also makes up close to 100% of the winter diet of sage grouse and over 60% of their total annual diet. Use of sagebrush by livestock is limited and variable.

Sagebrush's value as thermal or security cover is also very high for wildlife. This includes nesting cover and escape cover for sage grouse, sharp tailed grouse, pheasants, chukar and other upland birds. Come and take a look!
