Bessie and her baby

I don’t know why they call them “Bessie”, but Bessie and her baby live on the back road out of my subdivision. I see them some mornings.

They look like they want some conversation with you. I love their soft golden color and kind faces. Nice shot.

Brown Jerseys aren;t they? Nice looking cows. They are curious animals who will walk out of their way to come over and see who you are. I like cows.

Bessie is such a traditional name for a cow. You triggered a memory of my grandfather’s two work horses, named Bill and Dan. I wonder if those were traditional names for horses 60 years ago?

Cows, gotta love ‘em. I had my own “happy” cow post on Wednesday.

The baby reminds me of a pet calf I once had. The mother was dry so “Beauty” became mine; I was 8 years old. Would feed her milk 3 times a day. She soon learned to eat grain/grass but didn’t grow. Never got as big as the beautiful calf in the picture. Cows are so neat. Your beautiful photo captures it all!

We hate to bust your bubble . . . Bessie is a boy and so is the calf! Try new names!
