Crying Wolf

We have a neighbor that calls all the time about different things he sees happening on our farm.  A couple of months ago he left a message that someone walking down the road went through our gate and it looked like it could have been a woman.  It was me wearing leggings and a bright pink fuzzy coat.  I hope I looked like a woman.  Today's call was that we might have a goat out.  He could see something white in a field of black cows.  I said it was unlikely that just one goat would have gotten out but I would check.  
I decided to walk instead of driving.  When I got close enough I could see there was something white but couldn't quite tell what it was.  Once again, unlikely a goat laying there amongst a group of cows. 
So I climbed the fence onto a different neighbor where the white object was and got close enough to finally see it was a spotted calf, not a goat.  Maybe I need to get the neighbor some stronger binoculars.  
Anyway, I got all my steps in.

I take it , those aren't your cows? Perhaps it's good to have a nosy well meaning neighbor, at least you know the neighborhood watch system is working ;o)

Lol, too funny. At least it was a good excuse for a walk!

Haha - I'm glad he did not think it was Joe in the pink fuzzy coat :)
