Arwen Is Due Anytime

As you can see from this picture, Arwen is really bulging out on the right side where her calf is. Her due date was Saturday, so the calf should be born anytime.

I let Nora, Arwen, and Blodeuwedd in the oak planting on Saturday. There is lots of nice bluegrass in there for them. The oak leaves are all brown and so far they are being good and leaving the trees alone. I am keeping a close eye on the trees and on their behaviour. Can't say the same for the hay bales in there, I'll have to move them out.

Newla and Alf are in there too, but now that the calves are being born I'll try to take those two out. I had Alf out on Saturday but he sneaked back in to be near his mom Arwen.

We weaned the two bulls on Saturday. Hippie has been calling for them mournfully. the bulls don't seem to mind at all. We wanted to dry her off before winter.

Made the last hay on Sunday, 4 big bales over on the southernmost strips of the 30 acres. That brings us to 187 bales. I cut the little piece over by Bruce also but it might have all blown away.
