Curious Calves

As I was rotary mowing the tall clumps of grass and weeds (stickers) in the pasture, the calves came by to investigate the tractor and mowing deck.

They never got close enough to be in danger, but every time I would swing by their hangout area the would nose their way closer to see what I was doing.

The bull calves are the most curious and usually the most brave but also tend to be much more skittery and will kick up their heels and bellow before running away from the noisy chatter of the rotary mower only to repeat the performance on my next round around the field.
