Maybe just maybe –

– just maybe  Alex is pregnant.

I think she is developing an udder. This will be her second calf. It is not unusual for a cow to fill her udder in the last few weeks.  (As  Lady Astor showed us recently).    In fact I am feeling 60% sure that she is pregnant.

What do you think.

Though she does not look too wide. Maybe she is deep. 

And what about you Aunty Anna. Not telling? 

From the dates I collected last year for Alex her second possible date (she has passed her first) would be the 23rd of this month.

My first date for Aunty Anna is the 19th of this month.  But she is still in the maybe maybe-not category. Alex is in the maybe maybe .

These two (above)  – they completely ignore each other unless there is a camera near by.  We got up to 100F yesterday down here in the swamp. The cows spent most of the day under the trees.

The pigs stayed out of the sun altogether. 

See that piglet actually sleeping in the water trough? She lifted her head up as I lifted the camera.

I hope you have a lovely day.

Love celi

Weather forecast. More heat but with the chance of rain.  I can resume planting I think.  I would be grateful for a shower, dragging the hoses around the animals and gardens takes hours each day.
