We were woken early this morning by a loud knock on the door.
The young lad from next door wanted to share with us the happy news that their little beefalo calf had arrived safely.
What excitement!!!!!
How special to be there to see the brand new baby and her mother. As you can see the calf is a sturdy little thing and the mother is already showing very strong nurturing qualities.
The little heifer calf, less than an hour old, was skipping and jumping and crouching, just like a puppy, trying to encourage her mother to play with it. Literally full of life!
Elliot observed that it was clear evidence that we are meant to be happy.
After congratulations and due admiration and awe were paid, we loaded our canoe onto the trailer and headed over to
It is so beautiful here in the mornings, that the drive across to the lake is an absolute joy. The
sky is clear with rosy tints, the light on the hills is gentle… and the valleys are filled with mist.
We found two red claw (fresh water crayfish) to add to yesterday’s five. With luck we’ll have enough for a barbecue with friends on the weekend.
