Great photo!

Tatersmama said...

Look at all of us... all saying Awww !
But it's exactly what I said out loud as soon as I saw this mama licking her baby!

You know, girl... the way you take pictures, you ought to make a career out of your photos. I know I for one would be buyin'!

Okay now I'm spooked...
When I first say the photo, I said:
"Awwww. Oh Lawdy, Miz Claudie, that sure is pretty."

And now my word verification is
clawdi !!!

Eeeeeeeps!

Ok. I won't say "Awwww." I will say instead I'm really GLAD I didn't have to lick MY babies when they were born! LOL

That one is precious! I love the color of that calf in contrast to it's mama. Have a great weekend!

It's so sweet how nature just knows what to do. Sweet Mommas. I saw a mini horse today that had a colt and it didn't make it. We don't really know what happened.

Homestay Mama said...

That is another of your awesome photos. I agree with Tatersmama. But then maybe you already are making a career out of your photos. If so, I say, you go, girl!

SOOOOOO awesome! I love that pic! I tried to get one yesterday of a calf standing in the mud puddle while momma was giving him a bath and he was holding his nose up in the air almost buck toothed with a content and udderly (ha ha) happy face would have been the best pic ever and really captured a great moment..but no, didnt have my camera...figures!
