The first day of summer wasn’t very sunny but the little calves still needed an afternoon nap on a lazy day of summer before making the hike back across the pasture.
Although it wasn’t a warm or sunny day, the calves didn’t care and still kicked up their heels when they where let out to the pasture for the first time this year.
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.
After a few frosty morning, plants and critters will appreciate some warmer and sunny days like these calves taking a nap in the pasture (or they were napping until I interrupted their slumber).
The sun is out, snow is melting and it might actually warm up to a normal temperature today, but there won’t be any dry, green grass for the new calves to sleep on. Instead just cold snow and yucky mud awaits the calves first adventures into the world.
The Herefords are wondering what I’m doing taking their picture and interrupting their grazing. Course the colored leaves caught my attention first and seeing the cattle were a bonus.
