April calved yesterday afternoon out in the woods where the herd has been spending the last couple months.  It was a beautiful and unseasonably warm day (I think it got near 80 degrees!).  She is a nice small calf and was dry and up bouncing around when I found her.

These last two pics were taken today.  April brought baby up to the farmyard early this morning and I took the opportunity to lock them in so I could more easily keep a close eye on them both.  All is well, but the calf and the cow are so precious that I want to be extra watchful!

It is a very happy occasion here!
