Tuesday Otoelene and I helped J sort the first calf heifers in the field behind the house. We temporarily moved out the ones that had not calved and held them in a different field until we emptied the field and could move them back.
Some of the baby calves were a little reluctant to get in the water but J was there with some gentle encouragement. We didn't want the heifers taking off to the new pasture and leave the calves to run around crazy on the wrong side. You can just see the post on this side of the creek that last weeks water gap is attached to.

ReplyDeleteIt is like I am looking at a western cowboy movie. Round them them up.
ReplyDeleteSo serial. Your blog is very interesting all the time.
Love it all.
That was fun. It was neat to see the photographic procession as the cows/calves moved along. I bet the calves were scared about crossing the water.
ReplyDeleteFantastic sereis of shots of the round up.
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos! I love seeing these working shots, showing a process I am completely uneducated about!
