The early bird gets the worm but in this case the speedy cattle (or the meanest) get the shade of the tree on a warm day.

The cattle are enjoying a nice late summer day in the pasture and they better before they are walking in snow instead of grass as it seems summer is fading quickly this year.

Today was the Indianhead Polled Hereford Association Spring Opportunity Sale where established breeders and first time consignors had bulls. cows and heifers for sale. Even a little boy got to raise a bidder number (when said so) as the cattle were auctioned off. And this heifer was a granddaughter of a heifer purchased at a previous Indianhead sale.

My cat used to give me kisses and whisker rubs and I think I prefer that to a slobbery kiss from a heifer!

“On the Eighth Day of Christmas, my true love gave to me Eight Maids a-Milking.” I don’t think any wise maid milk would stick around during a Wisconsin winter to milk a herd of cows when the highs will be below zero. Of course technology has changed the way cows are milked with even robots do the milking, and while the machine might breakdown occasionally, they don’t call in sick from a New Year Eve hangover!

You often hear about a curious cat, but calves are curious too and it is much easier to handle one curious cat than a herd of curious calves!

The sun might have shone bright yesterday, but the cows don’t have a nice grassy pasture to lay on as the fields are ice and snow covered with more snow coming today.

The cattle seem to be enjoying the sunny fall day as much as I am although the grass holds their attention more than the autumn leaves which captures my eye.

For the last several days, the cattle haven’t needed a shade tree but an umbrella instead with all the rain and maybe soon they will need an ark too.

The cattle are more interested in the hay than with the approaching storm, but then they are probably getting used to the storms and getting rained on since it has been a wet June.
