I didn't grow up on a farm, although there used to be a fair amount in my town, and my father did grow up on one (Poultry & Market farming). Still, certain things you don't get to see very often...and today was the first time I saw it. Today I was returning from the airport with my Mom after picking up my sister who flew up from Norfolk this morning. Passing a field, something caught the corner of my eye only 50' or so off the road -- "Hey, is that a calf?" This farm stopped shipping milk about 5 years ago, but Austin kept a core of his herd around as pets / 4-H / foundation stock if he decides to start milking again in the future. Stopped -- momma was still licking off the calf, and her tail was stained with still bright red blood so she had to have given birth within what, 10 or 15 minutes maybe? We got to watch as the calf stood up for the first time, and wobbled under the cow -- who was more intent on finish cleaning him -- and explored under her, "Hey, I know I'm supposed to find something under here, but I'm not sure what!"
