wheels of Monterey, calf brigade


Every evening at 6 p.m. these wheels roll by with the water and feed for Raspberry, the teenage calf, who has moved back to our pasture. The little one-year-old always rides along with Pop.

Raspberry moved


The neighbor's Jersey-Brown Swiss calf we call Raspberry moved across Eby Road to our field. She had over-grazed our small fenced patch. Now she needs a collar and chain to keep her in place. I showed Brutus where she lives now and we noticed her water bucket had been knocked over.

calf moves into pasture


The neighbor brought a calf to live in our pasture for a while. It does not have a cute pet name or anything. I'm trying to keep my emotional distance so it does not bawl for food every time I go near. The neighbor does everything. I get the pleasure of seeing it and the benefit of keeping the meadow grazed.

Above its head the sour cherries get red and ripe.
