Farmer Bob's Newest Bulls


These two baby bulls were born in Farmer Bob's barn in October, when I took these photos. But because I still have no Internet at home, my posting is now haphazard. This will soon be fixed. Farmer Bob was a bit concerned when his first three calves were bulls. Finally the fourth one was a heifer. When clicked, these photos will open, full size, in a new window.

Camera Critters: Farmer Bob's Heifers: The Jersey Boss

When Farmer Bob got this heifer she immediately proclaimed herself boss of the heifers. She uses her horns to push and intimidate the others — and she always gets her way! When clicked, this photo will open, full size, in a new window.

Odd Shots: Nose Shot


I was photographing a herd of cattle in a field in Barton village. They saw me standing near the fence and came right over for a chat. This particular cow actually bumped the camera lens. I saw her coming through the view finder but I guess I misjudged how long she would take to bump into me. She and I are just fine and I got this shot. For more about this heard, see here and here.

A Herd of Herefords (I Hope)









On my way through Barton today, I stopped to photograph the Herefords that are always grazing in the village. I think they are Herefords — if they aren't, please tell me so that I don't look foolish. As soon as I stopped the car, they began to come to the fence from all over the pasture. The second to the last photo of the red cow shows her scratching her neck on the barbed wire.

Barn In The Thaw


One of my favorite barns is shrouded in mist caused by the January thaw. The roads are simply awful so that driving home this afternoon was an adventure. I wallowed in muddy ruts up to my hubcaps. Cows were lose in the road at two farms — they frolicked in the warm wind while farmers tried to herd them back to their pastures. Branches were blowing off trees and caused me to worry that they would damage the car. The wind is from the northwest again. Black ice will be the problem tomorrow, but winter is coming back.

Corn Stalk Root

In the corn maze on Saturday, I was fascinated by the roots of each stalk of corn.
