October 6th Surprise!

Well, I can’t wait till I’m caught up to post this! I couldn’t wait to share it with you, AFK! What a surprise we got this morning! Someone’s peeking out at me from behind the apple tree!

Ho da kewt!! Spots over its eyes! (We don’t know yet if it’s girl or boy.)

We didn’t think Bessie was due till next month! I think s/he was born last night about 5 pm. I’d taken a long distance shot of the cows, but until I zoomed in on the photo today, I didn’t see the brand new calf! See what I mean?

But now try look!

This is so exciting!! Jake and Sarah will put Bessie and baby inside the barn tonight since the coyotes have been singing the songs of their people very nearby lately.

    “Ho da kewt” indeed! Thanks for posting this so soon, Moki-chan! Very exciting. I’m always amazed at how quickly baby animals are up and able to walk.

      I knew I couldn’t wait to let you know, my friend. Now you and I gotta think of a name for…him! (Finally got close enough last night to tell.)

      Bessie has been stashing the calf in the bushes for the past two days so we haven’t been able to see more of him. She’s a good momma for sure, but I wanna see him!

  3. So fun to see the herd grow from your windows! And so nice that the owners manage them for safety, rather than killing the wildings who lived there first.
