Meet the Neighbours
I didn't think we had any neighbours living where we do, as on each side of us is a field which up intil now has been empty. However, on one side we now do have neighbours - cows!
The next two photos were taken a few days ago on the first evening they were in the field. Most of them are Holsteins but there is one Jersey among them. They are all young and they're certainly curious about us!
I like them all but I think she's lovely!
Every morning at about 8 am, someone from the farm comes and gives them some food - Grannymac thinks it will be supplements of some kind but she's not sure. They come running along the edge of the field to get to the troughs so, whatever it is, they want to get there fast! Sometimes if they get there first, a few of them make a loud moo-ing noise but usually they are very quiet.
They seem to enjoy lying down together near the gate - maybe just to be ready if someone comes along with something tasty.
The field is much more interesting with these neighbours in it!
