How (not) to photograph a calf

(The first time she goes out on a halter)

A pause for the cause

But I lo-o-o-ove you

What a little cutie! I deleted a lot of pictures of Meg's lamb that looked like that.

That's my baby girl. She is so much like her momma and big sister, sweetness wise.

Stacy, thanks, I thought the blurry shots were more fun than any number of better ones we got of her. Liz is going to put a video on BuckinJunction when she gets a chance.

Hey Paints!

What a sweet, sweet girl!
My hubby and I watched a program on PBS on cows last night. They actually mentioned the way cows want to go to the fair and try to scramble onto the trucks!

It was so neat we've decided we want a cow. If we ever become gentleman farmers - what breed would you recommend.

(I'll bet you're leaning over your computer now having a laugh attack at the thought of us burbanites raising a cow)

Hi cathy, wish I'd seen that...didn't know it was on and the guys watched the Mets game.
As to a breed for a hobby type farm...although Holsteins are much my favorite, they are very large and probably not the best choice. It you wanted a milk cow, I would probably think of a milking shorthorn. They are quite hardy and docile and not terribly large. We only have one and the bull, but they are quite gentle.

What a sweet face. Perhaps she's a bit camera shy.

POP, maybe...She also was delighted to get outside and run around. Liz did put up a video on BuckinJunction, but was pretty tired out by the time we took it.

I love all your pictures! Too cute!

That is so cool that they get a kick out of going to the fair! I loved the little caterpillar pictures too.

Hope you have a wonderful day!
