A calf was born yesterday evening. It is the first calf this cow has had.
The cow is being a good mom, and the calf appears to be healthy. She has two eyes and four legs, and for now we're grateful for that.
In case you were keeping track we've had five calves this year. Four of the five are healthy and with the rest of the herd. One is blind and under our care. The first four were born exactly a month apart (March 2, April 2, May 3, and June 3). Our newest one doesn't fit the pattern, but we'll take her anyway!

Welcome baby Highland! Good news on her health. Good news on the farmers' happiness, too!
