New Calves

I know these cows are not ours, but a baby is a baby!  In the last ten days, three calves have been born.  July arrived one morning after a little rain shower.  What I mean by that is, her proud mama led him out of the trees to join the herd at that moment when the rain shower was ending.

July loves to run ahead of his mama, then wait for her to catch up.  
A couple mornings later, just as the sun was hitting the pasture, Sunshine and his mama joined the herd.  This little guy has had a big adventure.  He got to ride on the Go Buggy when he was separated from the herd a couple mornings after his birth.

 That adventure has made him stick closer to his mama and she's keeping him on a tighter "leash."

Three mornings ago, I was watching a giant flock of blackbirds and cowbirds, when I noticed a mama laying down.  I thought this was strange and if she had laid there much longer, I was going to call the owner.  She stood up, something was hanging below her tail, and then a baby was born!  It was too amazing!  Of course I named this little guy, Birdie.

These three little guys are slowly getting to know each other.  One or more of their mamas are watching them all the time.

The older calves in the herd hang out together, are starting to eat grass, and are acting more like teenagers instead of babies.  But for now, we have these three little fellows to watch and enjoy.
