That was great! Lovely pics!
I love births. Always a little miracle.

Amazing...every time it's a miracle.

I dragged the kids outside to watch a cow calving just before bedtime last night. We waited and waited until they got too restless and I figured it was time to put them to bed. I did, then ran outside to see how she was progressing. Wouldn't you know it, that calf was already licked off and having a snack by the time I got out there. I guess we should have waited a little longer.

Just my luck...
