This red cow evidently jumped a cattle guard, and got in the wrong pasture. Then she mistakenly got moved a couple miles, and has been away from her calf for three or four days. Discovered the problem last evening, but had to do some detective work and book lookin' to figure out where she really belonged. Our latest forty calves didn't ever get tagged, which helped to complicate the situation.
As the day was so hot, I hauled a horse to the pasture and hoped I could get her loaded onto the trailer. All my crew found other things to do for excitement this week-end, so it was a solo project. Guess all is well that ends well. Mommy and junior are back together.
Riding upon the cows gathered at the windmill
I'd be there, too, on a hot day like this
Alert but staying put
Found the cow
Head for the pickup and trailer, old girl
You are going right
Getting closer
Go on around the front
Bear a bit more to the right
Doing fine
Just right
Almost there
Right where you belong
Goose, my old buddy and helper
Go find your baby
Yep, that's him
He'd be hungrier but he's been bumming from any other cow that would stand still
