Resting Peacefully

Little Sirloin is doing great. For having such a dramatic entrance into the world, life has settle down to learning whats its like to be a cow on Gentle Giant Meadows Ranch. The down side of it all is that he has not been given all the handling we usually give our calves and has developed keeping his distance when we go into the pen. Daisy is a different story. Mama will follow me all around the field while I am cleaning up looking for a back scratch! Little Sirloin follows us, but keeps his distance. Not sure about us. Yesterday evening I was in the shelter and Sirloin was laying down in the corner. I pounced on him and was able to hold on to him. What a squirm. Wiggle and yell. Well... Mama didn't like that. She came running in to see what was wrong and bellowing like crazy. Didn't do anything to me, but letting me know that she didn't approve of her little boy being disturbed. Everything was fine when I let him go. Daisy stood there for a back scratch!!!
Maureen is having a great time in England visiting friends and relatives. This week, Maureen is up north being chauffeured by Annie and Malcolm. Sure do miss being with her. So many friends and family that I would have liked to visit with her. Someday we will be able to leave here with someone able to handle all the fun here.
Time to get on with the morning chores. Lots to do and I want to get done before dark! Take care, stay safe and have a fun day. G
