Our neighbors heifers are starting spring early.
They are having BABIES.
Today it's trying to rain. I hope it does. We have had a very dry January with lots of sunshine.
I took these photos a few days ago when the sun was out and it was a nice, warm afternoon.
These cows were loving all the winter sunshine.
They look like the proverbial "Happy California Cows" don't they?... with a touch of "Don't get too close to my baby."
The littlest calf, born a few days ago, was lying on the warm dirt looking sooo cute.
I just wanted to hop over the fence and walk out there... you know... pet the little sweetheart and play with him a little, but then I realized that someone was watching me.
I don't think this was the little calf's mom but with that look on her face, I wasn't going to discuss it with her.
Maybe she was just having a bad day. We moms can remember days like this.. Maybe the "teenager" next to her was giving her some "lip". Who knows.
I thought it best
to move on
down the
road.
maybe when they are a little older you know...so cute...new life is so precious....

ReplyDeleteNew baby mammals are beautiful. I love to see them on their wobbly legs, the foals are especially appealing.
ReplyDeleteI miss that in the burbs!
If we sat down for tea once afternoon on your beautiful property, I would share the story of our last summer as a family of four. A rented cabin on a longhorn ranch and the fancy pants step-dad who thought you could just walk up for a closer look at them horns...he he it was a fun ride out of there, just like a western in some way!
ReplyDeleteThis is cool!
