    I spent half an hour looking for this heifer today, she was in the middle of a huge snowberry bush watching me walk around the hedges and drains looking for her.

    Ha! I was fit to hang her from the tree alright. Flies were bad today so reckon she was trying to get away from them.

    No idea. I thought it was Lavender.
    In the second pic, just as I as driving by, the farmer had just driven in with an old tractor and a forage wagon of grass. It was high 20's outside.

    Bull calf out of a plain limxAa second calver. Funny that it's rarely the best looking cow that has the best calves.

    There should be an "attach files" link like in the pic below. If not just try closing the tab/window and try again. It disappears all the time for some reason.

    Oh! You're on the new site? Go to the main front page & scroll down to the bottom, you'll see a link saying 'Legacy site'. Click that & you should be brought back to the old version which is much, much, much, much better :pac::D
