These are a few pics that I took along the way. The calf ones are just so sweet. So glad I happened upon them, at what must have been literally three or four minutes after the birth.
A lake we passed:
I know. The view is just horrible!!! :)
The calf, gettin' a moppin' from his mama.
She would lick him so hard he couldn't stand up. But he was pretty determined!
She didn't appreciate my presence.
There was a pic before this, but it wouldn't load. He finally got up on all fours. And then fell flat on his face. Poor baby!!
Mama looks a little disappointed. I thought he did great for the first time. ;)
I've named the calf Rupert. A fine name for such a lad, don't you think?
