Your blogger had just downloaded this foto from an archive of Judith Whitcomb's and no sooner had a print been made, in walks Margie Buyer to Patagonia-Mountain Empire Visitor Information Center to tell me some details: the cowboy on the horse is her son-in-law Dan Skiver, the horse's name is "Howdy", the image was captured at Poco Toro Ranch near Mowry (now "a deserted ghost town"), the fence - un cerco estacado - is made from the oak trees growing on the land constructed in a zig-zag pattern of "a Mexican" tradition, and the calves are an English breed called British White Parks . . . and there see you some of the research details triggered by memories of seeing just one image.
Notice, if you will, one of the calves of a different color and conformation . . . ???
