Got Milk?

Daisy's calf, Tip, sports his almost ever-present milk mustache in the following snapshot. I could stare at this little guy's ears for hours -- the way the hair scallops in three times against Tips's chocolate skin is so beautiful.

Tad, our Charolais steer, is in the background of this shot. Last week, Tad unlatched the gate and joined Daisy and her calf, becoming the official babysitter.

Today, I watched as Tip initiated play fighting with Tad. Actually, it was the calf butting his very small head against Tad's incredibly large one. To his credit, Tad just kept mowing the pasture, paying little heed to his youthful charge.
