I'm so thankful that we live in an area where we notice the change of seasons!
I'm generally a fair weather fan...I like spring when it gets warm, and fall when it cools down...
And the cows love it too...
They enjoy being outside most of the day this time of year. In the summer, they line up to come in after a short amount of time...they know we'll feed them and turn on the fans! (are they spoiled or what?!)
This fall, Jim fenced off about half the farm, and allows the cows to graze the rye fields, the alfalfa fields, and even to glean the corn fields... They would stay out there all day if we'd let them!
(Last week one day, he left the cows in the meadow, but not out into the grazing area...they stood at the wire, looking longingly at the other side of the fence and bawled...for TWO HOURS! Seriously!)
Don't they look content?
This is Belle...
She's the oldest cow in the barn ...the matriarch...the leader of the pack...at the ripe old age of 11...
Can you tell she's happy?
She's FAT from all that grazing...and she's loving it!
