Calves, calves, calves!!!

I love this time of year.
All the calves are being born.
We have all sorts of pretty ones.
Commercial cattle can be any shade! 


These girl swere walking up to the dam on sunset.


There seems to be a whole heap of twin mumma cows!
You will often find a whole heap of little calves plonked under a tree with one cow looking after them all, almost like a nanny.
All around will be the cows grazing away happily.


It is hard to know who is the mumma.
And the cows check them ever so carefully to make sure they don't share milk with anyone but their baby.





As we drove past the dam there were a couple of calves on the bank that just stood and stared at we aliens.


These little guys had absolutely no idea that they had to get off the road so that we could get past.


Then the lighter one just stood there and bellowed at me!


Cheeky thing!
