Man, wouldn't it be nice to not have to even deal with flys? They are a scourge!
I can't imagine what this world would be like without them. There would be tons of more garbage everywhere.

Calves are so cute.

In CA everyone calls those cows "Highway Patrol cows" as the Highway patrol cars are black with white doors. :)

I call them "pig cows" because when I was little I had some farm animal toys and all of the pigs were black with a white band, then years later I saw my first cow like that... lol

Today I took some new pictures of Gertrude. She has been growing like a weed! She's almost as big as George, the 4 1/2 month old Guernsey/Jersey steer. She's 1 month old. I wonder how big she'll be at weaning time - which is 8-12 months. The pictures don't show how thick she is.

And here's Lily, Sasha's blue-eyed calf, 2 weeks younger then Gertrude (though a good bit smaller), and they are best buddies.

I just love calves. "Our girls " are done for the year and we didn't get anything exciting.

A few show quality heifers, but, true to form they're solid black. No awesome markings to make them stand out. You can really see the Hereford side of her now.
