Camera Critter time!!

I got this picture recently of our cow,
 Cloud, with her new baby, born a few weeks
 ago. I named her Julie because she was born
 in July.

Sad ending ....

~~a sad-and expensive end to 2012 for us...last night-just after dark- we got a call that one of our young 'heifers' had gotten out of our back pa sture and got hit by a car and killed! A young girl was driving alone, but, thankfully, was not hurt. Charles went over there-(one street over)-At best we will be out the cost of the young cow...which would have been worth around $700.00 presently) Hopefully, the girl's insurance will cover her damages to her car! (I sure hope so because we can't afford another big bill to pay)

It was a freak thing to happen...sometimes young cows manage to get out, in spite of our best efforts to keep the fences in good shape!...The animal control people were there and Charles was not held responsible for this.

Apart from the $$ part, I am very sad about the loss of this beautiful little cow. She was one of the prettiest ones we've had.

This is a picture of "April" when she was just a day or so old, with her mom, Cloud.

The link to my blog shows a more recent pic of her.

A barbed wire fence is not much for show but it does it's job of keeping the animals in!

We have a new baby at our place this week - and she is a beauty!

I named her "April!"

These pictures were  all  taken when she was just about 1 hour old!

She's so pretty!

Mom is very protective of her newborn.

  After awhile, mom, "Cloud,"  relaxes and partakes of a well deserved snack of hay.

Camera Critters~ (for Feb 4, 2012) A Variery of critters...

At my house this week I had a few encounters with some critters...

There's always something 'WILD' going on in the country!  :)

One day this week my son brought this little critter up to show me. He had rescued it from one of his cats.  Luckily, the little guy was unharmed,

and we  set it free in my courtyard ;

  far away from his kitties.

I can't identify this lizard, can you?

Last night I had these 2 visitors to my back porch. They had come to dine on the food my cats had left on their plate!

I don't mind them coming to eat the leftovers...however, my poodle, Emmy, went wild barking at them through the glass door.  I wish I could get better pictures but there's no way!

~~~

This is what Emmy does to her stuffed animal toys... Maybe she's thinking she could do that to those big old wild Raccoons.

Better think twice about that, Emma Rose!

Last, but certainly not least, (in size, that is) I went with my husband to the pasture yesterday to put out feed for the cattle.

  As big as these critters are, they are not at all intimidating,

.... but I don't get close enough to 'pet' them!

  :)

What critters have you seen recently?

Can you believe I saw a COW in lower Manhattan??

Yep!

I did, and here she is!

I like the way those red leaves 'occupy' that top part of the picture!

A few days ago we visited our pasture where we have a few cows.  They like the shade in this hot weather!

You often see this in a cow pasture...

Hey! It's all part of the plan!
