I'm not staying on my toes.

Yesterday I was saying how the cows will start calving soon and I have to be on my toes; well I'm not on my toes in more ways than one.

When Brad was feeding the cows this morning, he called to tell me that the first calf had been born. Later I went out to check on thing's and I fell over.

Foxsun spotted me.

He decided to ambush me. He did that thing where he walks fast to get in front of me to stop me, then begs to have his belly scratched by holding up one of his back legs. I got around him and tried to walk faster so he couldn't stop me again. My foot drags a bit and it got caught some sagebrush and I went crashing down. Foxsun ran like hell so he wouldn't get blamed. That's one way to get rid of him.

I went looking for the cows using all my tracking skills, lol.

I found the cows but not the new mother and child. The rest of the cows looked in fine form.

Dandylyons and Foxsun stay together and not always with the herd. It's funny he doesn't mind me cuddling her, but he will not let Wildairo anywhere me. I noticed he had a big patch of hair missing from his shoulder. Now I know why Wildairo was walking around with hair sticking out of his mouth yesterday.

Foxsun looks so excited to see you!

I can't wait to see your calves. Hope this bad weather doesn't cause you any problems.
