Texas style photography and words
This little calf moved in next door and I have been trying to get some cute pictures.
This was the pose I got most of the time it’s farther away than this.
One of the joys of country living is the livestock that is nearby. I love all the baby animals.
In the freshly mowed pasture the little red loafing shed really stands out. Its paint is starting to fade but it still gets noticed.
Sunrise is the best time to get pics of the pastures. In this picture the sun was coming up on the left hand side of the photo.
I love sunrises that accent the landscape and welcome a new day with the perfect lighting. The sky and the shed really pop in the morning light.
There are no cattle here at the moment but there should be some real soon and you can bet I will be taking me some more pics.
Longhorns are quite unique looking.
They are a medium-sized cow that is not real beefy looking but those horns and the speckles will let you know it’s them.
Country living in Texas would not be the same without the longhorns.
This heifer’s eyes allow you to see her personality.
When she was put in the pasture beside us she was very standoffish, shy, and kept to herself. She did not even stand with the other heifers.
A few months later I gained her trust and now she is the first one to the fence to greet me.
A heifer’s eyes show you deep into their soul.
When you win her trust that is when you can form a beautiful friendship.
This baby calf is right next door and he was about 3 days old in this picture last Saturday.
Most of the new calves next door to us come up to me on my first attempt to call them to the fence. Gotta love it.
I was able to grab a few pictures and this one has the cutest eyes and a crazy hyper personality. He takes off running and kicking like he is a few months old.
Country Life at its best!
These heifers next door to our house seem to think that when I am outside they will get a treat sometimes they do but sometimes I am just taking pictures.
The good thing is, either way, they pose for me. If they are across the pasture they come running when they see me.
Country life is great but I love cows.
The premature calf is growing and thriving. I call her Baby and she seems quite friendly and she is full of energy.
This heifer next door in the pasture was curious about my camera.
She does take a good picture got to love that bokeh.
Sometimes I can take a picture like this that says it all.
This calf I believe was born the day before yesterday.
It is a tiny calf so more than likely it was premature but it seems to be getting around good and being quite active.
