The Lonely Cow!
Some of you got the cow email, for those that didn't... We had excitement in the farm field this week as a baby cow was born while we were walking Gifford! Super sweet, I worried about coyotes getting the sweet babe the first night as momma cow didn't seem too "motherly" and sort of abandoned the poor thing longer than I thought she should have (we all spent some hours surfing the web about "normal" calf/momma behavior). But, all was well and it is up and grazing the field on day 3. Sadly, the other calves are bullies! Poor little thing is all alone and when it catches up with the bully cows they kick it away! Here is the baby (about 10 minutes old) and "The Lonely Cow"! Thinking of kidnapping it and bringing it into our yard for a playmate for Gifford (just kidding).
