SO BABY HAD A DRINK. Then, when baby was not paying attention, Mama disappeared out into the field. Leaving Baby behind.
Like cow mothers do.
But all is not lost. There is another baby. And this baby “knows the ropes”. (One of my favourite maritime idioms being brought up in a maritime family and all).
Baby Bobby looks to Rainbow for advice. Of course,, this baby – Rainbow- also knows how to make the most of her moment in the spotlight.
She is tiny but definitely the old kid on the block. Who me? But I am SO busy. Can’t someone else mind the new kid?
I am so busy scratching. If in doubt: Scratch – you know? Like a cat. What? You want what?
Let’s get out of here. Grownups are so BORING.
Will you have a lovely day? I think I will have a lovely day – I am a very determined woman when it comes to that kind of thing. I think you are too. Determined. Not necessarily a woman.
Love celi

I never associated ‘knows the ropes’ with sailors or vessels… for some reason I assumed it originated in boxing, like a boxer knows his way around the ring and therefore knows the ropes. It sounds silly I know, however it is something I grew up assuming and it just stuck xD
Morning Sam. Yes – it is all about the rigging. The boxer connection works too though.. ! c
Hey Sam – Just went over to look at your blog. I love it! Really. Cheers.. c
Those babies must be cousins. No doubt there will be some knot tying lessons out in the field.
Rainbow has that look about her – she is definitely the boss of the playground.
A fish jumps out of the pond, it goes around the tree and then jumps back into the pond 😉
Bowline! 😂
A Flag raising knot!: )
(And… It’s been such an awfully long time since Girl Guides… But a Clove Hitch at the other end?)
The babies are so sweet. Have a lovely Sunday.
The baby’s so sweet
Woman and determined here….yes an outstanding day (and not just out standing in the field) hahahahha oh do forgive
There’s always one Natural Born Leader. Not bossy, no, no, just… a Leader.
Well, there you go – right there by the blue gate – two regular-shaped sets of cow(calf: ) ears!
Mmm… “Knowing the ropes” must’ve quite a challenge on one of those Tall Ships, hey?
Caption for that last pic: “FINE! Let’s go then, if you must tag along…” ; )
Just love her furry butt in the second-to-last (ears pic: )
Just finished “Shipping News” with each chapter headed with instructions for various knot-making. Fascinating— book and knots.
Those babies are just too cute. I sense a bit of lightness in you today. Hope you are feeling that way.
Aah had some much needed rain today, most welcome cool down. Amazing two week old calf nearly taller than her 2 month old half sister
